    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Luis Tepia Santos, Appellant.
   — Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Suffolk County (Tisch, J.), rendered November 9, 1987, convicting him of sexual abuse in the third degree, upon a jury verdict, 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). Mangano, J. P., Bracken, Eiber, Spatt and Sullivan, JJ., concur.
