IN THE COURT OF APPEALS OF THE STATE OF WASHINGTON STATE OF WASHINGTON, No. 71407-4-1 Respondent, DIVISION ONE v. JAMES EUGENE TYLER JR., Appellant. UNPUBLISHED OPINION FILED: jul 1 3 2015 Per Curiam - James Tyler Jr. appeals his convictions for furnishing liquor to a minor and communication with a minor for immoral purposes. He argues that the court erred in failing to enter written CrR 3.5 findings and conclusions and that we must remand for their entry. The trial court belatedly entered the findings and conclusions, however, and Tyler has not alleged any prejudice from their delayed entry. Accordingly, he fails to demonstrate grounds for relief. State v. Cannon. 130 Wn.2d 313, 329, 922 P.2d 1293 (1996) ("Although the practice of submitting late findings and conclusions is disfavored, they may be 'submitted and entered even while an appeal is pending' if the defendant is not prejudiced by the belated entry of findings."
