Opinion

The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Melinda Morales, Appellant. [MAJORITY] Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Slavin, J.), rendered November 15, 1988, convicting her of criminal possession of a controlled substance in the fourth degree, upon her plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed. We have reviewed the record and agree with the defendant’s assigned counsel that there are no meritorious 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; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631; cf., People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606). Thompson, J. P., Brown, Balletta, Miller and O’Brien, JJ., concur.
