PEOPLE v. DETRES (2025)

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Eugene M. Guarino, J.), rendered July 17, 2023, convicting him of course of sexual conduct against a child 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, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v. Thomas, 34 N.Y.3d 545, 558–564, 122 N.Y.S.3d 226, 144 N.E.3d 970;  People v. Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d 248, 255–257, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145;  People v. Corbin, 121 A.D.3d 803, 804–805, 993 N.Y.S.2d 746).  The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his challenge to the Supreme Court's denial of his motion pursuant to CPL 30.30 to dismiss the indictment on the ground that he was deprived of his statutory right to a speedy trial (see People v. Montano, 235 A.D.3d 1003, 1004, 226 N.Y.S.3d 618;  People v. McLeod, 235 A.D.3d 999, 228 N.Y.S.3d 319;  People v. Gore, 224 A.D.3d 848, 848–849, 205 N.Y.S.3d 486).
