Opinion
No. 2005-01725.
March 13, 2007.
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Hall, J.), rendered January 31, 2005, convicting him of attempted robbery in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, N.Y. (Paul Skip Laisure of counsel), for appellant.
Charles J. Hynes, District Attorney, Brooklyn, N.Y. (Leonard Joblove and Jane S. Meyers of counsel), for respondent.
Before: Mastro, J.P., Ritter, Skelos, Carni and McCarthy, JJ.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.
The defendant's written waiver of his right to appeal precludes review of his constitutional challenge to the procedure used to adjudicate him as a persistent violent felony offender ( see People v. Ramos, 7 NY3d 737; People v. Callahan, 80 NY2d 273, 281). In any event, this issue is unpreserved for appellate review as the defendant failed to raise this challenge at sentencing ( see People v. Daniels, 5 NY3d 738, 740, cert denied 546 US 988; People v. Rosen, 96 NY2d 329, 335, cert denied 534 US 899; People v. Singh, 35 AD3d 317; People v. Thompson, 33 AD3d 825; People v. Rivera, 31 AD3d 790).
The defendant's waiver also precludes review of his contention that he was denied the effective assistance of trial counsel in the context of his adjudication as a persistent violent felony offender inasmuch as the defendant is not claiming that his plea was involuntarily obtained ( see People v. Porter, 268 AD2d 603 [2000]).
