328 S.E.2d 573 (Ga. Ct. App. 1985)

Opinion

69706.

DECIDED MARCH 13, 1985.

Escape. Tattnall Superior Court. Before Judge Cavender.

Dupont K. Cheney, District Attorney, for appellee.


Appellant was convicted of escape from confinement. His attorney filed a motion to withdraw as counsel pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 ( 87 SC 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493). In accordance with Anders, counsel has filed a brief raising points of law which he considered could arguably support an appeal. We are in agreement with counsel that none of the points raised, though persuasively presented, have any merit. Therefore, we granted the motion to withdraw. In addition, we have fully examined the record and transcript to determine independently if there are any meritorious errors of law. We have found none. We are satisfied that the evidence produced at trial was sufficient to authorize any rational trier of fact to find appellant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of the crimes charged. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560); Baldwin v. State, 153 Ga. App. 35, 37 ( 264 S.E.2d 528).

Judgment affirmed. Birdsong, P. J., and Carley, J., concur.

DECIDED MARCH 13, 1985.
