    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Arthur Blake, Also Known as Robert Johnson, Ronald Boyd, and Steven Banks, Appellant.
    [888 NYS2d 401]
   Purported appeal from order, Supreme Court, New York County (Rena K. Uviller, J.), entered on or about March 12, 2008, which denied defendant’s CPL 440.20 motion to set aside a resentence, unanimously dismissed on the ground of failure to obtain leave to appeal pursuant to CPL 460.15.

Application by appellant’s counsel to withdraw as counsel is granted (see Anders v California, 386 US 738 [1967]; People v Saunders, 52 AD2d 833 [1976]). We have reviewed this record and agree with appellant’s assigned counsel that there are no nonfrivolous points which could be raised on this purported appeal.

Pursuant to Criminal Procedure Law § 460.20, defendant may apply for leave to appeal to the Court of Appeals by making application to the Chief Judge of that Court and by submitting such application to the Clerk of that Court or to a Justice of the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of this Department on reasonable notice to the respondent within 30 days after service of a copy of this order, with notice of entry.

Denial of the application for permission to appeal by the judge or justice first applied to is final and no new application may thereafter be made to any other judge or justice. Concur—Tom, J.P., Friedman, Moskowitz, Freedman and Abdus-Salaam, JJ.
