Thompson v. State (Per Curiam)
Annotate this CaseAfter a jury trial, Appellant was found guilty of first-degree murder, among other offenses. Appellant was sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder conviction. A timely notice of appeal was filed, but the attorney appointed to represent Appellant on appeal filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and a no-merit brief. Appellant submitted a pro se response, and the State responded. The Supreme Court stayed appellate counsel’s motion to withdraw and ordered rebriefing because counsel failed fully to comply with the requirements of Anders v. California and Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-3(k).
