Brooks T. Baker, District Attorney, Bath (John C. Tunney of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Steuben County (Jason L. Cook, J.), rendered April 4, 2024. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of driving while intoxicated, a class E felony.

It is hereby ordered that the judgment so appealed from is unanimously affirmed.

Memorandum: On appeal from a judgment convicting him, upon his guilty plea, of driving while intoxicated as a class E felony (Vehicle and Traffic Law §§ 1192 [3]; 1193 [1] [c] [i] [A]), defendant contends that his sentence is unduly harsh and severe. Defendant's contention "is foreclosed by his unchallenged waiver of the right to appeal" (People v Rosado-Thomas, 181 AD3d 1166, 1167 [4th Dept 2020], lv denied 35 NY3d 1048 [2020]; see People v Allen, 203 AD3d 1574, 1574 [4th Dept 2022], lv denied 38 NY3d 1031 [2022]).
