    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Clifton Springer, Appellant.
    [646 NYS2d 634]
   —Appeal by the defendant from an amended judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Firetog, J.), rendered December 14, 1994, revoking a sentence of probation previously imposed by the same court upon a finding that he had violated a condition thereof, after a hearing, and imposing a sentence of imprisonment on his previous conviction of robbery in the first degree. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738) in which she moves to be relieved of the assignment to prosecute this appeal.

Ordered that the motion is granted, llene H. Cohen, P.O. Box 221, Roslyn, New York, 11576, is relieved as attorney for the defendant and she is directed to turn over all papers in her possession to new counsel assigned herein; and it is further,

Ordered that Mark Diamond, of Ryder Station, P.O. Box 307, Brooklyn, N. Y., 11234, is assigned as counsel to perfect the appeal; and it is further,

Ordered that the People are directed to furnish a copy of the stenographic minutes to the new assigned counsel; and it is further,

Ordered that new counsel shall serve and file a brief on behalf of the defendant within 90 days of the date of this decision and order and the People shall serve and file their brief within 120 days of the date of this decision and order; by prior decision and order of this Court, the defendant was granted leave to prosecute the appeal on the original papers (including the typewritten stenographic minutes) and on the typewritten briefs of the parties, who were directed to file nine copies of their respective briefs and to serve one copy on each other.

Based upon this Court’s independent review of the record, we conclude that arguable issues exist with respect, inter alia, to whether the sentence imposed was unduly harsh. Under the circumstances, the motion of the defendant’s assigned counsel to be relieved as counsel is granted and new appellate counsel is assigned (see, People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606; People v Casiano, 67 NY2d 906; People v Miller, 99 AD2d 1021).
