No.
JAMES DICKERSON,
Opinion Delivered
JULY 1, 2009
APPELLANT
APPEAL FROM THE PULASKI
COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT,
[NO. CR06-709]
V.
STATE OF ARKANSAS,
APPELLEE
HONORABLE WILLARD PROCTOR
JR., JUDGE,
AFFIRMED; MOTION GRANTED
KAREN R. BAKER, Judge
Appellant James Dickerson was convicted by a Pulaski County jury of rape, and the
trial court sentenced him to thirty-five years’ imprisonment as a habitual offender. Pursuant
to this court’s January 14, 2009, rebriefing order, Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967),
and Rule 4-3(k) of the Rules of the Arkansas Supreme Court and Court of Appeals,
appellant’s counsel has filed a motion to withdraw on grounds that the appeal is without
merit. This motion is accompanied by an abstract and brief referring to everything in the
record that might arguably support an appeal. The clerk of this court furnished appellant
with a copy of his counsel’s brief and notified him of his right to file a pro se brief within
thirty days. Appellant filed a brief addressing issues that were either wholly outside the
record, raised for the first time on appeal, or fully covered in his counsel’s brief.
From our review of the record and the briefs presented to us, we find compliance with
Rule 4-3(k), and that the appeal is without merit. Accordingly, counsel’s motion to be
relieved is granted and the judgments of conviction are affirmed.
Affirmed.
KINARD and HENRY , JJ., agree.
