Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Rockland County (Nelson, J.), rendered July 8, 1997, convicting him of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.
Robert C. Wilkie, Suffern, N.Y., for appellant, and appellant pro se.
Michael E. Bongiorno, District Attorney, New City, N.Y. (Carrie A. Ciganek and Ann C. Sullivan of counsel), for respondent.
Before: A. GAIL PRUDENTI, P.J., CORNELIUS J. O'BRIEN, LEO F. McGINITY, STEPHEN G. CRANE, 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; cf. People v. Gonzalez, 47 N.Y.2d 606).
The defendant has not, nor could he have, raised any nonfrivolous issues in his supplemental pro se brief.
PRUDENTI, P.J., O'BRIEN, McGINITY and CRANE, JJ., concur.
