Opinion
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Cohen, J.), rendered July 9, 2014, convicting him of manslaughter in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
Contrary to the defendant's contention, the record demonstrates that he knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily waived his right to appeal (see People v. Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d 248, 256, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145 ). The defendant's valid appeal waiver precludes the review of his challenges to the denial of his suppression motion (see People v. Hicks, 134 A.D.3d 854, 854, 19 N.Y.S.3d 907 ), the factual sufficiency of his plea allocution for the charge of manslaughter in the second degree (see id. at 854, 19 N.Y.S.3d 907 ), and the alleged excessiveness of the sentence imposed (see People v. Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d at 256, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145 ).
