DONALD TYLER
April 25, 2007
APPELLANT
APPEAL FROM THE FULTON
COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT
[NO. JV2004-19-3]
V.
ARKANSAS DEPARTMENT OF
HUMAN SERVICES and
B.T. and D.T., Minor Children
APPELLEES
HONORABLE STEPHEN CHOATE,
CIRCUIT JUDGE
AFFIRMED; MOTION
WITHDRAW GRANTED
TO
The circuit court terminated the parental rights of appellant, Donald Tyler, regarding
minor children B.T. and D.T. As prescribed by Linker-Flores v. Arkansas Department of
Human Services, 359 Ark. 131, 194 S.W.3d 739 (2004), and Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-3(j),
appellant’s counsel has filed a brief and a motion to withdraw as counsel, asserting that a
review of the record reveals no issue of arguable merit. Counsel’s brief discusses the adverse
rulings made at the termination hearing as to appellant and the sufficiency of the evidence
to support the termination decision, in keeping with Lewis v. Arkansas Department of Human
Services, 364 Ark. 243, --- S.W.3d ---- (2005). In accordance with Linker-Flores, the clerk
of this court attempted to provide appellant by certified mail with a copy of counsel’s brief
and notify him of his right to file pro se points for reversal within thirty days, but the packet
was returned, and there is no other known address for appellant.
After a full examination of the record, we find that counsel has complied with the
requirements for a no-merit examination of the record and hold that the appeal is wholly
without merit.
Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion to withdraw and affirm the
termination decision.
Affirmed.
GRIFFEN and BAKER, JJ., agree.
