[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent,

v

Corey Ward, appellant.

Patricia Pazner, New York, NY (David P. Greenberg of counsel; Russ Altman-Merino on the memorandum), for appellant.

Melinda Katz, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (Johnnette Traill of counsel; Deanna Russo on the memorandum), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER

Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Toni M. Cimino, J.), rendered April 25, 2022, 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 sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte , 90 AD2d 80).

The defendant's remaining contention is unpreserved for appellate review and, in any event, without merit.

CONNOLLY, J.P., CHAMBERS, MILLER, DOWLING and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
