The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

against

Daphne J. Taylor, Appellant.

John R. Lewis, for appellant. Westchester County District Attorney, for respondent (no brief filed).

Appeal from two judgments of the City Court of Mount Vernon, Westchester County (William Edwards, J.), rendered December 14, 2015. Each judgment convicted defendant, upon her plea of guilty, of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the seventh degree, and imposed sentence. 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 judgments of conviction are 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]).

MARANO, P.J., GARGUILO and RUDERMAN, JJ., concur.
