Opinion
November 14, 1996.
Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Broome County (Smith, J.), rendered April 19, 1995, convicting defendant upon his plea of guilty of the crime of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the fifth degree.
Before: Cardona, P.J., Crew III, Yesawich Jr., Peters and Carpinello, JJ.
After being charged in an indictment with criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, defendant pleaded guilty to criminal sale of a controlled substance in the fifth degree in satisfaction of the indictment and five other pending charges. As agreed upon, defendant was sentenced as a second felony offender to a prison term of 2 to 4 years and now appeals. We affirm.
Defense counsel contends that there are no nonfrivolous issues in this case and seeks to be relieved as counsel. Upon our review of the record, which demonstrates a knowing, intelligent and voluntary guilty plea, as well as defense counsel's brief, we agree. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed and defense counsel's application for leave to withdraw is granted ( see, People v Cruwys, 113 AD2d 979, lv denied 67 NY2d 650).
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
