IN RE: MON EL C. (Anonymous). Suffolk County Department of Social Services, petitioner-respondent; v. Josephine C. (Anonymous), appellant, et al., respondent.
DECISION & ORDER
In a proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 10, the mother appeals from an order of the Family Court, Suffolk County (Matthew Hughes, J.), dated November 3, 2022. The order, after a hearing, denied the mother's application pursuant to Family Court Act § 1028 for the return of the subject child to her custody during the pendency of the proceeding. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 U.S. 738), in which he moves for leave to withdraw as counsel for the appellant.
ORDERED that the order is affirmed, without costs or disbursements.
We are satisfied with the sufficiency of the brief filed by assigned counsel pursuant to Anders v. California (386 U.S. 738). Upon an independent review of the record, we conclude that there are no nonfrivolous issues which could be raised on appeal. Counsel's application for leave to withdraw as counsel is, therefore, granted (see id.; Matter of Sylvie A.S. [Cynthia F.W.], 209 AD3d 657).
DILLON, J.P., CHAMBERS, GENOVESI and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
