Opinion
June 12, 1997
Appeal from the County Court of Columbia County (Czajka, J.).
Defense counsel seeks to be relieved of his assignment as counsel for defendant on the ground that there are no non-frivolous issues that can be raised on appeal. Upon our review of the record, we find that defendant knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently entered into a plea of guilty. His sentence was in accordance with the plea agreement and complied with the relevant statutory requirements. The judgment is, accordingly, affirmed and defense counsel's application for leave to withdraw is granted (see, People v Cruwys, 113 A.D.2d 979, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 650).
Cardona, P.J., Crew III, White, Peters and Carpinello, JJ., concur.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
