Opinion
April 2, 1998
Appeal from the County Court of Montgomery County (Sise, J.).
Defense counsel seeks to be relieved of her assignment as counsel for defendant on the ground that there are no nonfrivolous issues that can be raised on appeal. Based upon our review of the record and defense counsel's brief, we agree. Defendant entered a knowing, voluntary and intelligent plea of guilty of the crime of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fifth degree and was sentenced in accordance with the plea agreement. In view of the foregoing, we affirm the judgment of conviction and grant defense counsel's application to withdraw (see, People v. Cruwys, 113 A.D.2d 979, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 650).
Mikoll, J.P., Crew III, Yesawich Jr., Spain and Carpinello, JJ., concur.
Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
