DECISION & ORDER

Appeals by the defendant from two judgments of the County Court, Suffolk County (Anthony S. Senft, Jr., J.), both rendered June 27, 2018, convicting him of endangering the welfare of a child under Indictment No. 993–17, upon his plea of guilty, and criminal sexual act in the third degree (two counts) under Indictment No. 2599–17, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentences. The appeal from the judgment rendered under Indictment No. 993–17 brings up for review two orders of protection issued at the time of sentencing.

ORDERED that upon the appeal from the judgment rendered under Indictment No. 993–17, those portions of the orders of protection which stated that they were issued in accordance with section 530.12 of the Criminal Procedure Law and directed that they remain in effect until and including June 27, 2024, are vacated, on the law and as a matter of discretion in the interest of justice, and the matter is remitted to the County Court, Suffolk County, for a new determination of the duration of the orders of protection and, thereafter, for the issuance of new orders of protection, inter alia, stating that they are issued in accordance with section 530.13 of the Criminal Procedure Law ; and it is further,

ORDERED that the judgments are affirmed.

As to Indictment No. 993–17, we find that the record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (see People v. Thomas, 34 N.Y.3d 545, 564–565, 122 N.Y.S.3d 226, 144 N.E.3d 970 ; 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, 248, 811 N.Y.S.2d 623, 844 N.E.2d 1145 ). Nonetheless, the defendant's challenges to two orders of protection issued at the time of sentencing survive his valid appeal waiver (see People v. Thomas, 193 A.D.3d 889, 889, 142 N.Y.S.3d 390 ; People v. Casanova, 177 A.D.3d 582, 582, 109 N.Y.S.3d 904 ; People v. Hanniford, 174 A.D.3d 921, 922, 103 N.Y.S.3d 318 ).

The People, in effect, correctly concede that the orders of protection in this case are governed by CPL 530.13(4) rather than CPL 530.12(5) (see id. §§ 530.11; 530.12[5]; 530.13[4]). Contrary to the defendant's contention, the issuance of the orders of protection with respect to the

161 N.Y.S.3d 825

victim's mother and siblings was proper since they were members of the victim's family and household (see id. § 530.13[4] ; People v. Guidice, 183 A.D.3d 913, 913, 122 N.Y.S.3d 916 ; see also People v. May, 138 A.D.3d 1146, 1147, 30 N.Y.S.3d 327 ). The defendant's contention that the County Court erred in issuing the orders of protection, because it failed to state the reasons therefor on the record, is unpreserved for appellate review (see CPL 470.05[2] ; People v. Nieves, 2 N.Y.3d 310, 316–317, 778 N.Y.S.2d 751, 811 N.E.2d 13 ). In any event, the contention is without merit.
