ARKANSAS COURT OF APPEALS
DIVISION III
No. CR-13-284
SUSAN LYNN HOUGHTON Opinion Delivered January 15, 2014
APPELLANT
APPEAL FROM THE JOHNSON
V. COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT
[NO. CR-2011-141]
STATE OF ARKANSAS HONORABLE BILL PEARSON,
APPELLEE JUDGE
AFFIRMED; MOTION GRANTED
RITA W. GRUBER, Judge
A jury found Susan Lynn Houghton guilty of possession of drug paraphernalia with
intent to manufacture methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia, for which she
was sentenced to a total 144 months’ imprisonment in the Arkansas Department of
Correction. Pursuant to Arkansas Rule 4-3(k)(1) of the Rules of the Arkansas Supreme
Court and Court of Appeals and Anders v. California,
(1967), her attorney has
filed a motion to withdraw on the ground that there are no non-frivolous issues that would
support an appeal in this case. Counsel’s motion is accompanied by an abstract and addendum
of the proceedings below, including all objections and motions decided adversely to
Houghton, and a no-merit brief in which counsel explains why nothing in the record would
arguably support an appeal. Houghton was notified of her right to file pro se points but has
not done so.
From our review of the record and the brief presented to us, we find compliance with
Cite as
and we hold that there is no merit to this
appeal. Accordingly, counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted and the conviction is affirmed.
Affirmed; motion granted.
HARRISON and WOOD, JJ., agree.
