The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

against

Steven Kovalovsky, Appellant.

Appeal from a judgment of the District Court of Suffolk County, First District (Stephen M. Behar, J.), rendered July 16, 2007. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of criminal contempt in the second degree. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), in which he seeks leave to withdraw as counsel.

ORDERED that the judgment of conviction is affirmed.

We have reviewed the record and agree with 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 Blasi, 76 AD3d 550 [2010]; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631 [1976]; cf. People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606 [1979]).

Iannacci, J.P., Tolbert and Garguilo, JJ., concur.
