State v. Boome
State v. Boome
Opinion of the Court
The defendant appeals from the judgment and sentence entered on his plea of guilty to the charge of grand larceny. His court-appointed attorney has filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and an Anders brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967). The state has moved to dismiss the appeal as frivolous.
One of the requirements in Anders is that the indigent appellant be given time to raise any points that he chooses. The record reflects that counsel advised the appellant by letter that the appeal was frivolous on February 26, 1970, and that counsel mailed him a copy of the combined motion
Having reviewed the brief filed by counsel appointed for appellant and having conducted 'an independent examination of the entire record, we must agree with counsel that the appeal is indeed frivolous.
Both motions are granted and the judgment and sentence is affirmed.
