The People, etc., respondent, v. Jahrel Cade, appellant.
Argued—June 1, 2026
DECISION & ORDER
W/
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Raymond L. Rodriguez, J.), rendered July 21, 2023, convicting him of attempted criminal possession of a weapon 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 NY3d 545, 567; People v. Brown, 245 AD3d 955, 955; People v. Colonna, 239 AD3d 671, 671). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of his challenge to the Supreme Court's suppression determination (see People v. Berrios, _ AD3d _, _, 2026 N.Y. Slip Op 02664, *1; People v. Fields, _ AD3d _, _, 2026 N.Y. Slip Op 01981, *1; People v. Williams, 235 AD3d 784, 784).
DILLON, J.P., VOUTSINAS, LOVE and GOLDBERG VELAZQUEZ, JJ., concur.
