Per Curiam.
{¶ 1} This cause came on to be considered upon a notice of appeal, the transcript of
the docket and journal entries, the transcript of proceedings and original papers from the
Preble County Court of Common Pleas, upon the brief and supplement filed by appellant's
counsel, the state's brief in response and appellant's pro se brief.
Preble CA2015-05-012
{¶ 2} Counsel for defendant-appellant, Michael Robinson, has filed a brief with this
court pursuant to Anders v. California,
(1967), 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 appellant upon which an assignment of
error may be predicated; (2) lists three potential errors "that might arguably support the
appeal," Anders, at 744,
; (3) requests that this court review the record
independently to determine whether the proceedings are free from prejudicial error and
without infringement of appellant's constitutional rights; (4) requests permission to withdraw
as counsel for appellant 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 appellant.
{¶ 3} Appellant has filed a pro se brief raising assignments of error pertaining to his
sentence, the traffic stop, and the voluntariness of his plea.
{¶ 4} We have examined the record, the potential assignments of error presented in
counsel's brief, and the assignments of error in appellant's pro se brief, and find no error
prejudicial to appellant's rights in the proceedings in the trial court. Therefore, the motion of
counsel for appellant requesting to withdraw as counsel is granted, and this appeal is
dismissed for the reason that it is wholly frivolous.
