634 State v. Jones EGAN, J.

Defendant appeals from a judgment of conviction for two counts of felony strangulation constituting domestic violence, ORS 163.187(4). His appointed counsel filed a brief pursuant to ORAP 5.90 and State v. Balfour, 311 Or 434, 814 P2d 1069 (1991). The brief does not contain a Section B. See ORAP 5.90(1)(b). We affirm.1 Based on incidents in May 2022, defendant was charged with four counts of felony strangulation constitut- ing domestic violence, ORS 163.187(4) (Counts 1-4) and one count of felony fourth-degree assault constituting domestic violence, ORS 163.160(3) (Count 5). After a jury trial, defen- dant was found guilty of all counts. At sentencing, the trial court merged Count 2 with Count 1 and imposed a sentence of 16 months in prison and 24 months of post-prison super- vision. The trial court merged Counts 4 and 5 with Count 3 and imposed a stipulated sentence of five years of super- vised probation.

Having reviewed the record, including the trial court’s pretrial rulings, the testimony of the witnesses, the jury instructions, the closing arguments, and the arguments at sentencing, and the brief, we have identified no arguably meritorious issues.

Affirmed.
