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

    v

    Balar Warren, appellant.




    Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY, for appellant.

    Richard A. Brown, District Attorney, Kew Gardens, NY (John M. Castellano, Johnnette Traill, and Danielle S. Fenn of counsel; Victoria Randall on the brief), for

    respondent.



    DECISION & ORDER

    Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Stephanie Zaro, J., at plea; Dorothy Chin-Brandt, J., at sentence), rendered March 30, 2016, convicting him of attempted criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 U.S. 738), in which he moves for leave to withdraw as counsel for the appellant.

    ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed.

    We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by the defendant's assigned counsel pursuant to Anders v California (386 U.S. 738), 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; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631; cf. People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606).

    BALKIN, J.P., CHAMBERS, ROMAN, MALTESE and CONNOLLY, JJ., concur.
