People v. Fortune

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of New York, Third Department
Feb 29, 1996
224 A.D.2d 871 (N.Y. App. Div. 1996)

Opinion

February 29, 1996

Appeal from the County Court of Ulster County (Vogt, J.).


Defense counsel has made application to be relieved of her assignment on the basis that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on appeal. Upon reviewing the record and defense counsel's brief, we agree. Defendant entered a plea of guilty in a negotiated plea. The record discloses that the plea was knowingly and voluntarily entered into and defendant was sentenced in accordance with the terms of the plea agreement. Accordingly, the judgment must be affirmed and defense counsel's application for leave to withdraw granted (see, Anders v California, 386 U.S. 738; People v. Cruwys, 113 A.D.2d 979, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 650).

Mikoll, J.P., Mercure, Crew III, Yesawich Jr. and Peters, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
