In re STEPHANY C., Petitioner–Appellant, v. JOSE C., Respondent–Respondent.
Leslie S. Lowenstein, Woodmere, for appellant.
Order, Family Court, New York County (Fiordaliza A. Rodriguez, Referee), entered on or about October 17, 2013, which, after a hearing, dismissed the petition by appellant mother for custody of the subject child, unanimously affirmed, without costs.
Application by appellant's counsel to withdraw as counsel is granted ( see Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 [1967]; People v. Saunders, 52 A.D.2d 833, 384 N.Y.S.2d 161 [1976] ). We have reviewed this record and agree with appellant's assigned counsel that there are no nonfrivolous points which could be raised on this appeal. The record demonstrates that appellant voluntarily appeared and submitted to the jurisdiction of the Circuit Court of Maryland, Baltimore County (Jan Marshall Alexander, J.), which rendered a judgment of divorce and custody that resolved the custodial issues raised in her custody petition ( see Matter of Tick v. Tick, 96 A.D.2d 657, 657–658, 466 N.Y.S.2d 741 [3d Dept.1983] ). TOM, J.P., FRIEDMAN, ACOSTA, DeGRASSE, GISCHE, JJ., concur.
