    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Melody J. Schade, Appellant.
    [727 NYS2d 646]
   —Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Dutchess County (Dolan, J.), rendered February 23, 2000, convicting her of criminal possession of a forged instrument in the second 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 nonfrivolous 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). Ritter, J. P., Altman, McGinity, Smith and Cozier, JJ., concur.
