State v. McNeil, Unpublished Decision (9-24-2003)
Opinion of the Court
{¶ 2} Defendant-appellant, Ramon McNeil, appeals the judgment of the trial court convicting him of one count of aggravated robbery and one count of felonious assault, with firearm specifications. He was convicted after entering guilty pleas to the charges.
{¶ 3} After thoroughly reviewing the record and the applicable law, McNeil's appointed appellate counsel, pursuant to Anders v.California,1 states in his brief that he has found no errors in the proceedings below and has filed a motion to withdraw as counsel.
{¶ 4} Under Anders, this court is now charged with the task of independently reviewing the record for any prejudicial errors that would warrant the reversal of McNeil's convictions. After reviewing the entire record, we conclude that there was no prejudicial error in the proceedings below, and we hold that there are no grounds to support a meritorious appeal. The judgment of the trial court is, therefore, affirmed, and appellate counsel's motion to withdraw is overruled.
{¶ 5} Although we have concluded that this appeal is frivolous pursuant to App.R. 23 and is without "reasonable cause" under R.C.
{¶ 6} Further, a certified copy of this Judgment Entry shall constitute the mandate, which shall be sent to the trial court under App.R. 27.
