DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Edward T. McLoughlin, J.), rendered June 18, 2019, convicting her of rape in the third degree, upon her plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived her right to appeal (see People v Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d 248, 256-257; People v Puccio, 191 A.D.3d 1022, 1022). The defendant's valid waiver of her right to appeal precludes appellate review of her contention that the sentence imposed was excessive (see People v Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d at 255-257).
MASTRO, J.P., MILLER, DUFFY and GENOVESI, JJ., concur.
