[*1]The People of the State of New York, respondent, 
vJacob Kim, appellant.


Lynn W. L. Fahey, New York, NY (Tammy Linn of counsel), for appellant, and appellant pro se.
Eric T. Schneiderman, Attorney General, New York, NY (Michelle Maerov and Thomas B. Litsky of counsel), for respondent.

DECISION & ORDER
Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Queens County (Buchter, J.), rendered October 31, 2013, convicting him of attempted promoting prostitution in the third degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738), in which she 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 US 738), and we have also reviewed the defendant's pro se supplemental brief. Upon an independent review of the record, we conclude that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on the appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is, therefore, granted (see id.; People v Hardy, 130 AD3d 753; Matter of Giovanni S. [Jasmin A.], 89 AD3d 252).
BALKIN, J.P., AUSTIN, SGROI and LASALLE, JJ., concur.
