DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County ( Matthew J. D'Emic, J.), rendered September 7, 2018, convicting him of gang assault in the first degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

The defendant's valid waiver of the right to appeal precludes appellate review of his contention that his sentence was excessive (see People v. Sanders, 25 N.Y.3d 337, 12 N.Y.S.3d 593, 34 N.E.3d 344 ; People v. Lopez, 6 N.Y.3d 248, 255, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145 ).

Although the defendant's contentions regarding an order of protection issued at the time of sentencing survive his valid appeal waiver (see People v. Nieves, 2 N.Y.3d 310, 316, 778 N.Y.S.2d 751, 811 N.E.2d 13 ; People v. Glover, 173 A.D.3d 1201, 101 N.Y.S.3d 623 ), they are unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05[2] ; People v. Nieves, 2 N.Y.3d at 316–318, 778 N.Y.S.2d 751, 811 N.E.2d 13 ), and we decline to review them in the exercise of our interest of justice jurisdiction.

BALKIN, J.P., CHAMBERS, COHEN and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
