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

    v

    Gregory Gottfried, appellant.




    Daniel L. Kron, Brooklyn, NY (George C. Grasso of counsel), for appellant.

    Thomas E. Walsh II, District Attorney, New City, NY (Jacob B. Sher of counsel; Meghan Garvey on the brief), for respondent.



    DECISION & ORDER

    Appeal by the defendant from an amended judgment of the County Court, Rockland County (Kevin F. Russo, J.), rendered August 31, 2020, revoking a sentence of probation previously imposed by the County Court, Onondaga County (Anthony F. Aloi, J.), upon a finding that he violated a condition thereof, upon his admission, and imposing a sentence of imprisonment upon his previous conviction of attempted sexual abuse in the first degree.

    ORDERED that the amended judgment is affirmed.

    The defendant's contention that his sentence violated his right to free speech as guaranteed by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution is unpreserved for appellate review (see People v Braxton, 121 AD3d 1126) and, in any event, without merit.

    The sentence imposed was not excessive (see People v Suitte, 90 AD2d 80).

    HINDS-RADIX, J.P., CONNOLLY, IANNACCI and CHRISTOPHER, JJ., concur.

    Aprilanne Agostino

    Clerk of the Court
