CA2011-07-077 CA2011-07-079 DECISION 12/5/2011 : : APPEAL FROM WARREN COUNTY COURT OF COMMON PLEAS JUVENILE DIVISION Case No. 10-D00595 David P. Fornshell, Warren County Prosecuting Attorney, Michael Greer, 500 Justice Drive, Lebanon, Ohio 45036, for appellee, Warren County Children Services A. Aaron Aldridge, 130 East Mulberry Street, Lebanon, Ohio 45036, for appellant, S.A. Jeffrey E. Richards, 147 Miami Street, P.O. Box 536, Waynesville, Ohio 45068, for appellant, D.A. Timothy McKenna, 125 East Court Street, Suite 950, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202, for guardian ad litem, James Cismesia Per Curiam. {¶1} This cause came on to be considered upon the notices of appeal, the transcript of the docket and journal entries, the transcript of proceedings and original papers from the Warren County Court of Common Pleas, Juvenile Division, and upon briefs filed by appellants' counsel, oral argument having been waived. {¶2} In these consolidated appeals, separate counsel for appellants, S.A. and D.A., have each filed a brief with this court pursuant to Anders v. California (1967), 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, which (1) indicates that a careful review of the record from the proceedings below fails to disclose any errors by the trial court prejudicial to the rights of appellants upon which an assignment of error may be predicated; (2) lists three potential errors on behalf of appellant, S.A., and one potential error on behalf of appellant, D.A., "that might arguably support the appeal," Anders at 744, 87 S.Ct. at 1400; (3) requests that this court review the record independently to determine whether the proceedings are free from prejudicial error and without infringement of appellants' constitutional rights; (4) requests permission to withdraw as counsel for appellants on the basis that the appeal is wholly frivolous; and (5) certifies that a copy of both the brief and motion to withdraw have been served upon the respective appellants. {¶3} Having allowed appellants sufficient time to respond, and no response having been received, we have accordingly examined the record and find no error prejudicial to appellants' rights in the proceedings in the trial court. The motions of counsel for appellants requesting to withdraw as counsel are granted, and these appeals are dismissed for the reason that they are wholly frivolous. POWELL, P.J., RINGLAND and PIPER, JJ., concur.
