Wilhem Jean-Louis was convicted of attempted criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second degree following a guilty plea in Rockland County. He appealed the judgment rendered on October 23, 2012. The Appellate Division, Second Department affirmed the judgment, stating that Jean-Louis's valid waiver of his right to appeal barred any review of his claim regarding the excessiveness of the sentence. The court referenced precedents from *People v Sanders* and *People v Seaberg* to support its decision. All justices concurred in the ruling.
