The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v Wayne Stewart, Appellant.
    [688 NYS2d 924]
   —Appeal from a judgment of the County Court of Franklin County (Main, Jr., J.), rendered April 20, 1998, convicting defendant upon his plea of guilty of the crime of promoting prison contraband in the first degree.

Defendant, a prison inmate, pleaded guilty to the crime of promoting prison contraband in the first degree and was sentenced as a second felony offender to a prison term of 2V2 to 5 years, to be served consecutively with the prison term he was currently serving. Defense counsel seeks to be relieved of his assignment as counsel for defendant on the ground that there are no nonfrivolous issues that can be raised on appeal. Our review of the record and defense counsel’s brief leads to the same conclusion. The judgment is, accordingly, affirmed and defense counsel’s application for leave to withdraw is granted (see, People v Cruwys, 113 AD2d 979, Iv denied 67 NY2d 650).

Mercure, J. P., Crew III, Peters, Carpinello and Graffeo, JJ., concur. Ordered that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
