    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Carlos Lopez, Appellant.
    [771 NYS2d 680]
   by the defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Westchester County (Molea, J.), rendered March 31, 2003, convicting him of rape in the first degree, upon his 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 [1967]; People v Paige, 54 AD2d 631 [1976]; cf. People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606 [1979]). Ritter, J.P., S. Miller, Townes, Crane and Rivera, JJ., concur.
