Nonprecedential Memo Op: 332 Or App 250 (2024) 251 EGAN, J.

Defendant appeals from a judgment of conviction for unauthorized use of a vehicle, ORS 164.135 (UUV).

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 The state charged defendant with UUV and flee- ing or attempting to elude a police officer, ORS 811.540.

After a court trial, defendant was convicted of UUV, and the other charge was dismissed. At a sentencing hearing in which defendant was sentenced in seven pending criminal cases, the trial court sentenced defendant to 18 months in prison for the crime of UUV in Case No. 21CR58667, with 12 months to run consecutive to an 18-month sentence imposed in Case No. 21CR36251.

Having reviewed the record, including the pretrial proceedings, the arguments and testimony during defen- dant’s court trial, and the arguments at sentencing, and having also reviewed the Balfour brief, we have identified no arguably meritorious issues.

Affirmed.

As authorized by ORS 2.570(2)(b), this matter is determined by a two-judge panel. See, e.g., State v. Yother, 310 Or App 563, 484 P3d 1098 (2021) (deciding matter submitted through Balfour process by two-judge panel); Ballinger v. Nooth, 254 Or App 402, 295 P3d 115 (2012), rev den, 353 Or 747 (2013) (same).
