McLoughlin, J.), rendered September 4, 2024, convicting him of criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.</p> <p>ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.</p> <p>The record demonstrates that the defendant knowingly, voluntarily, and intelligently waived his right to appeal (<i>see People v Thomas</i>, 34 NY3d 545; <i>People v Batista</i>, 167 AD3d 69). The defendant's valid waiver of his right to appeal precludes appellate review of the County Court's discretionary determination to decline to grant him youthful offender treatment (<i>see</i> <i>People v Pacherille</i>, 25 NY3d 1021, 1024; <i>People v Cruz</i>, 243 AD3d 920, 920-921).</p> <p>GENOVESI, J.P., WAN, LANDICINO and HOM, JJ., concur.</p> <p>ENTER:</p> <p>Darrell M.
