The People of the State of New York, Respondent,
v
James Johnson, Appellant.

—[*1]Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.), rendered March 15, 2002, convicting him of murder in the first degree (two counts), murder in the second degree, robbery in the first degree, and kidnapping in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence.

Ordered that the judgment is affirmed.

We have reviewed the record and agree with the defendant's assigned counsel that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is granted (see Anders v California, 386 US 738 [1967]; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631 [1976]; cf. People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606 [1979]).

The defendant has not raised any nonfrivolous issues in his supplemental pro se brief. Crane, J.P., Mastro, Fisher and Lunn, JJ., concur.
