[*1]The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Yanick Ramirez, Appellant.

Calendar Date:April 15, 2022
Before:Garry, P.J., Egan Jr., Clark, Aarons and Colangelo, JJ.

Lisa A. Burgess, Indian Lake, for appellant.

J. Anthony Jordan, District Attorney, Fort Edward (Taylor Fitzsimmons of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Washington County (McKeighan, J.), rendered July 12, 2019, convicting defendant upon his plea of guilty of the crime of attempted promoting prison contraband in the first degree.

Defendant pleaded guilty to the reduced charge of attempted promoting prison contraband in the first degree and was sentenced as a second felony offender, in accordance with the plea agreement, to a prison term of 1½ to 3 years to run consecutively to the sentence he was currently serving. Defendant appeals.

Appellate counsel seeks to be relieved of her assignment of representing defendant on the ground that there are no nonfrivolous issues that may be raised on appeal. Based upon our review of the record and counsel's brief, we agree. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed and counsel's request for leave to withdraw is granted (see People v Cruwys, 113 AD2d 979, 980 [1985], lv denied 67 NY2d 650 [1986]; see generally People v Beaty, 22 NY3d 490 [2014]; People v Stokes, 95 NY2d 633 [2001]).

Garry, P.J., Egan Jr., Clark, Aarons and Colangelo, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
