Opinion

— Appeal by the defendant from a judgment of the County Court, Nassau County (Baker, J.), rendered February 25, 1988, convicting him of criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, upon his plea of guilty, and imposing sentence. Assigned counsel has submitted a brief in accordance with Anders v California (386 US 738) in which she moves to be relieved of the assignment to prosecute the appeal.

Ordered that the motion is granted, Florence M. Kerner is relieved as attorney for the defendant and she is directed to turn over all papers in her possession to new counsel assigned herein; and it is further,

[732]*732Ordered that llene H. Cohen, P.O. Box 221, Roslyn, N. Y. 11576 is assigned as new counsel to perfect the appeal; and it is further,

Ordered that the People are directed to furnish a copy of the stenographic minutes to the new assigned counsel; and it is further,

Ordered that new counsel shall serve and file a brief on behalf of the defendant within 90 days of the date of this order and the People shall serve and file their brief within 120 days of the date of this decision and order; by prior decision and order of this court, the defendant was granted leave to prosecute the appeal on the original papers (including the typewritten stenographic minutes) and on the typewritten briefs of the parties, who were directed to file nine copies of their respective briefs and to serve one copy on each other.

Based upon this court’s independent review of the record, we conclude that arguable issues exist with respect, inter alia, to whether the defendant’s plea was knowingly and voluntarily entered (see, People v Harris, 61 NY2d 9) and whether the court properly directed restitution of the "buy” money expended by the police to purchase narcotics from the defendant (see, People v Rowe, 75 NY2d 948). Under the circumstances, the motion of the defendant’s assigned counsel to be relieved as counsel is granted and new appellate counsel is assigned (see, People v Gonzalez, 47 NY2d 606; see also, People v Casiano, 67 NY2d 906; People v Miller, 99 AD2d 1021). Mangano, P. J., Balletta, Eiber, Pizzuto and Santucci, JJ., concur.
