Jie Chen appealed a sentence imposed on November 1, 2017, by the Supreme Court, Kings County, following a guilty plea, arguing that the sentence was excessive. The Appellate Division, Second Department, affirmed the sentence, stating that Chen's valid waiver of the right to appeal barred any review of the excessive sentence claim. The decision was rendered by Justices Mark C. Dillon, Leonard B. Austin, Sheri S. Roman, and Linda Christopher. The ruling referenced precedents from People v Sanders and People v Lopez to support the affirmation of the sentence.
