Sanford v. State
Sanford v. State
Opinion of the Court
Kenneth Rannya Sanford was convicted of the felony murder of Lynn C. Sullivan, and was sentenced to life imprisonment.
After the defendant’s appeal was filed in this court, his appointed appellate counsel filed a motion requesting permission to withdraw from the case pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U. S. 738 (87 SC 1396, 18 LE2d 493) (1967). As to the arguable grounds for appeal, counsel concluded that the issues of the admission of photographs and the cross-examination of a witness concerning the statement of co-defendant Brown have been decided against the appellant in the opinions affirming the convictions of his co-defendants, i.e., Boyd v. State, 244 Ga. 130 (1, 2) (259 SE2d 71) (1979); Jones v. State, 243 Ga. 584 (255 SE2d 702) (1979).
As required by Anders v. California, supra, we have examined the entire record in this case. After having reviewed the evidence (which is summarized in Jones v. State, supra) in the light most favorable to the prosecution, this court concludes — as it did from the
Appeal dismissed.
