No. 60362-1-I.The Court of Appeals of Washington, Division One.
July 21, 2008.
Appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court for King County, No. 06-1-09821-4, Gregory P. Canova, J., entered July 10, 2007.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
PER CURIAM.
Azia Williams appeals from the judgment and sentence entered after his conviction for one count of first degree robbery. Williams’ court-appointed attorney has filed a motion to withdraw on the ground that there is no basis for a good faith argument on review. Pursuant to State v. Theobald, 78 Wn.2d 184, 470 P.2d 188 (1970), and Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967), the motion to withdraw must:
[1] be accompanied by a brief referring to anything in the record that might arguably support the appeal. [2] A copy of counsel’s brief should be furnished the indigent and [3] time allowed him to raise any points that he chooses; [4] the court — not counsel — then proceeds, after a full examination of all the proceedings, to decide whether the case is wholly frivolous.
State v. Theobald, 78 Wn.2d at 185 (quoting Anders v. California, 386 U.S. at 744).
This procedure has been followed. Williams’s counsel on appeal filed a brief with the motion to withdraw. Williams was served with a copy of the brief and informed of the right to file a statement of additional grounds for review. He did not file a statement of additional grounds.
The facts are accurately set forth in counsel’s brief in support of the motion to withdraw. The court has reviewed the briefs filed in this court and has independently reviewed the entire record. The court specifically considered the following potential issues raised by counsel:
1. Whether the information charging first degree robbery was constitutionally sufficient?
2. Whether the trial court erred by failing to select an alternate juror?
3. Whether sufficient evidence supported Williams’ conviction?
4. Whether the deputy prosecutor committed reversible misconduct during closing argument?
The potential issues are wholly frivolous. Counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted and the appeal is dismissed.
