Opinion

Case No. 20080812-CA.

Filed May 21, 2009. Not For Official Publication

Appeal from the Third District, West Jordan Department, 081401294, 081401405, 081400122, 081401032 The Honorable Robert Adkins.

Ronald Fujino, Salt Lake City, for Appellant.

Mark L. Shurtleff and Kris C. Leonard for Appellee.

Before Judges Thorne, Bench, and Orme.


MEMORANDUM DECISION


Appellant Troy Anthony Brinar appeals his convictions and sentences for various crimes. Brinar's counsel filed a brief in accordance withAnders v. California, 386 U.S. 783 (1967), and State v. Clayton, 639 P.2d 168 (Utah 1981). The brief "objectively demonstrate[s] that the issues raised are frivolous." State v. Flores, 855 P.2d 258, 260 (Utah Ct. App. 1993) (per curiam); see also Dunn v. Cook, 791 P.2d 873, 877 (Utah 1990) (stating an Anders brief must demonstrate any "potentially meritorious" issues are actually frivolous). Based upon our independent examination of the record, we determine that the appeal is, indeed, wholly frivolous, and accordingly, we affirm the decision of the district court and grant counsel's motion to withdraw.

William A. Thorne Jr., Associate Presiding Judge, Russell W. Bench, Judge, Gregory K. Orme, Judge.
