    The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v John Smith, Appellant.
   — Appeal by defendant from a judgment of the Supreme Court, Kings County (Lodato, J.), rendered October 21, 1981, convicting him of robbery in the second degree, upon a jury verdict, and imposing sentence.

Judgment affirmed.

We have reviewed the record and agree with 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, Weinstein, Lawrence and Kooper, JJ., concur.
