DECISION & ORDER

Appeals by the defendant from three judgments of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Joseph E. Gubbay, J.), all rendered November 27, 2018, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree under Indictment No. 1495/16, criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree under Indictment No. 3113/16, and criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree under Indictment No. 9385/16, upon his pleas of guilty, and imposing sentences. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493, in which he moves for leave to withdraw as counsel for the appellant.

ORDERED that the judgements are affirmed.

We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by the defendant's assigned counsel pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493, and, upon an independent review of the record, we conclude that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is, therefore, granted (see id. ; Matter of Giovanni S. [Jasmin A.], 89 A.D.3d 252, 931 N.Y.S.2d 676 ; 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 ).

CHAMBERS, J.P., MILLER, DUFFY, LASALLE and WOOTEN, JJ., concur.
