The People of the State of New York, Respondent, —

against

Abraham Cruz, Appellant.


Appeal from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, Queens County (Gene R. Lopez, J.), rendered October 15, 2009. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of petit larceny. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), in which he moves for leave to withdraw as counsel for appellant.


ORDERED that the judgment of conviction is affirmed.

We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by defendant's assigned counsel pursuant to Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), and, upon an independent review of the record, we conclude that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on the appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is, therefore, granted (see Anders v California, 386 US 738; People v Blasi, 76 AD3d 550 [2010]; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631 [1976]; cf. People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606 [1979]).

Weston, J.P., Pesce and Rios, JJ., concur. [*2]
