MEMORANDUM AND ORDER
Defense counsel seeks to be relieved from his assignment as counsel for defendant on the ground that there are no nonfrivolous issues that can be raised on appeal. Defendant, while incarcerated, entered a knowing, voluntary and intelligent plea of guilty to attempted promoting prison contraband in the first degree and was sentenced as a second felony offender to an indeterminate prison term of 1 1/2 to 3 years. His sentence is in accordance with the relevant statutory requirements and not harsh and excessive. Accordingly, the judgment is affirmed and defense counsel's application for leave to withdraw is granted (see,People v. Cruwys, 113 A.D.2d 979, lv denied 67 N.Y.2d 650).
Cardona, P.J., Mercure, Peters, Carpinello and Graffeo, JJ., concur.
ORDERED that the judgment is affirmed, and application to be relieved of assignment granted.
