Legal Opinion

People v. Norfort

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York

Decided December 5, 2012Published

1Opinion of the Court

Contrary to the People’s contention, the defendant did not validly waive his right to appeal (see People v Lopez, 6 NY3d 248, 256 [2006]; People v Holmes, 95 AD3d 1236 [2012]). However, the sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80 [1982]). Mastro, J.P., Skelos, Leventhal, Austin and Cohen, JJ., concur.
