DECISION & ORDER
Appeals by the defendant from two judgments of the County Court, Orange County (Craig Stephen Brown, J.), both rendered November 16, 2021, convicting him of coercion in the first degree, criminal obstruction of breathing or blood circulation, and endangering the welfare of a child (three counts) under Indictment No. 292/19, and forgery in the second degree under Superior Court Information No. 385/21, upon his pleas of guilty, and imposing sentences.
ORDERED that the judgments are affirmed.
The defendant’s waivers of his right to appeal, the validity of which he does not challenge, preclude appellate review of his contentions that the sentences imposed were excessive (see People v. Guzman, 127 A.D.3d 1108, 5 N.Y.S.3d 880).
The defendant’s remaining contention is without merit.
IANNACCI, J.P., MALTESE, VOUTSINAS and LANDICINO, JJ., concur.
