David Gandin, Walden, N.Y., for appellant. William V. Grady, District Attorney, Poughkeepsie, N.Y. (Joan H. McCarthy of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal by the defendant from an amended judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Hayes, J.), rendered April 15, 2009, revoking a sentence of probation previously imposed by the same court, upon a finding that he had violated a condition thereof, upon his admission, and imposing a sentence of imprisonment upon his previous conviction of robbery in the third degree. 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 amended judgment is 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 conclude that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is, therefore, granted ( see Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493; Matter of Giovanni S. [ Jasmin A.], 89 A.D.3d 252, 931 N.Y.S.2d 676; People v. Paige, 54 A.D.2d 631, 387 N.Y.S.2d 399; cf. People v. Gonzalez, 47 N.Y.2d 606, 419 N.Y.S.2d 913, 393 N.E.2d 987).

SKELOS, J.P., BELEN, LOTT and MILLER, JJ., concur.
