Opinion
February 22, 1988
Appeal from the Supreme Court, Kings County (Owens, J.).
Ordered that the judgments are affirmed.
We have reviewed the record and agree with the defendant's assigned counsel that there are no meritorious 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; cf., People v Gonzalez, 47 N.Y.2d 606).
The claim raised in the defendant's pro se supplemental brief, that the presentence report was inadequate in that it contained little information concerning the defendant's background (see, CPL 390.20), is both unpreserved and meritless. No complaint concerning the adequacy of the report was raised before sentence was imposed. Moreover, any deficiency in the presentence report was due to the defendant's refusal to speak to the probation officer who prepared the report. The defendant should not be heard to complain of an omission that was of his own making. Thompson, J.P., Bracken, Brown, Weinstein and Spatt, JJ., concur.
