Defendant and Appellant.

MEMORANDUM DECISION
(Not For Official Publication)

Case No. 990292-CA

F I L E D
March 16, 2000
  2000 UT App 78 -----

Third District, Tooele Department
The Honorable Leon A. Dever

Attorneys:
Julie George, Salt Lake City, for Appellant

-----

Before Judges Greenwood, Davis, and Orme.

PER CURIAM:

Edward Jones appeals his convictions of Assault, a class B misdemeanor, and Retail Theft, a third degree felony.

Appellant's appointed counsel filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967), and State v. Clayton, 639 P.2d 168 (Utah 1981). The brief satisfies the requirements of our case law and objectively demonstrates "that the potentially meritorious issues raised are frivolous." Dunn v. Cook, 791 P.2d 873, 877 (Utah 1990). Based upon our independent examination of the record, we determine that the appeal is, indeed, wholly frivolous and, accordingly, we affirm the conviction and grant counsel's request to withdraw.
