Before: LAWRENCE J. BRACKEN, P.J., WILLIAM D. FRIEDMANN, ANITA R. FLORIO, HOWARD MILLER, SANDRA L. TOWNES, JJ.
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; People v. Paige, 54 A.D.2d 631.
Assigned counsel's contention relating to supplemental pro se briefs is not properly before this court on direct appeal (see, People v. Garcia, A.D.2d [2d Dept., Apr. 30, 2001]; People v. Perez, 279 A.D.2d 640, lv denied 96 N.Y.2d 786).
BRACKEN, P.J., FRIEDMANN, FLORIO, H. MILLER and TOWNES, JJ., concur.
