The PEOPLE of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Daniel F. NEWTON, Appellant.
Opinion
Appeal from a judgment of the District Court of Nassau County, First District (Valerie Alexander, J., at plea, Erica L. Prager, J., at sentencing), rendered February 16, 2011. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal contempt in the second degree. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v. California (386 U.S. 738 [1967] ), in which he seeks leave to withdraw as counsel.
ORDERED that the judgment of conviction is affirmed.
We have reviewed the record and agree with 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 [1967] ; People v.. Blasi, 76 Ad3d 550 [2010] ; People v. Paige, 54 AD3d 631 [1976] ; cf. People v. Gonzalez, 407 N.Y.2d 606 [1979] ).
