The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

against

Kaseam Phillips, Appellant.

Appellate Advocates (Ronald Zapata, Esq.), for appellant. District Attorney Kings County (Leonard Joblove, Solomon Neubort of counsel), for respondent.

Appeal from a judgment of the Criminal Court of the City of New York, Kings County (Craig Walker, J.), rendered March 30, 2015. The judgment convicted defendant, upon his plea of guilty, of aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), seeking leave to withdraw as counsel.

ORDERED that the judgment of conviction is affirmed.

We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by defendant's assigned counsel pursuant to Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), and, upon an independent review of 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.], 89 AD3d 252 [2011]; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631 [1976]; cf. People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606 [1979]).

WESTON, J.P., ALIOTTA and ELLIOT, JJ., concur.
