Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Morgan J. Dennehy ofcounsel; Darci Wen Siegel on the brief), for respondent.

Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordancewith Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), in which she moves for leave to withdrawas counsel for the appellant.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by the defendant's assigned counselpursuant to Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), and, upon an independent reviewof 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 id.; Matter of Giovanni S. [Jasmin A.], 89AD3d 252 [2011]). Iannacci, J.P., Christopher, Dowling and Hom, JJ., concur.
