Sentence Could Be Challenged In Spite of Waiver of Appeal.

A valid waiver of the right to appeal did not preclude defendant from challenging the severity of his sentence where the sentencing court did not inform the defendant of the maximum term of incarceration and there was no specific sentence promise at the time of the waiver.  People vs Scott, 107, KA 11-01655 Fourth Dept. 2-8-13
