Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Nassau County (Sullivan, J.), rendered October 10, 2007, convicting him of burglary in the first degree and burglary in the second degree (three counts), upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.
We have reviewed the record and agree with the defendant's assigned counsel that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is granted ( see Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493; People v. Paige, 54 A.D.2d 631, 387 N.Y.S.2d 399; cf. People v. Gonzalez, 47 N.Y.2d 606, 419 N.Y.S.2d 913, 393 N.E.2d 987).
The defendant has not raised, nor could he have raised, any nonfrivolous issues in his pro se supplemental brief.
