The People of the State of New York, Respondent,

v

Kwame W., Appellant.

Paul Skip Laisure, New York, NY (Lynn W.L. Fahey of counsel), for appellant.

Eric Gonzalez, District Attorney, Brooklyn, NY (Leonard Joblove and Jodi L. Mandel of counsel), for respondent.

Appeals by the defendant from three judgments of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Dineen Ann Riviezzo, J.), all rendered October 10, 2018, adjudicating him a youthful offender, upon his pleas of guilty to criminal possession of a weapon in the second degree under indictment No. 2034/17, robbery in the second degree under indictment No. 4075/17, and robbery in the second degree under indictment No. 857/18, and imposing sentences. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738 [1967]), in which he moves for leave to withdraw as counsel for the appellant.

Ordered that the judgments are affirmed.

We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by the 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 the appeals. 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]). Rivera, J.P., Duffy, Barros and Iannacci, JJ., concur..
