DECISION & ORDERAppeals by the defendant from two judgments of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Elizabeth Foley, J.), both rendered May 13, 2016, convicting him of grand larceny in the third degree under Indictment No. 6922/15, and criminal possession of stolen property in the third degree under Indictment No. 7644/15, 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 judgments 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 agree that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on the appeals. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is, therefore, granted (see id. ; People v. Walker, 157 A.D.3d 726, 726, 66 N.Y.S.3d 612 ; People v. Vosper, 156 A.D.3d 919, 920, 65 N.Y.S.3d 775 ; Matter of Giovanni S. [Jasmin A.], 89 A.D.3d 252, 255, 931 N.Y.S.2d 676 ).
