MEMORANDUM DECISION

Chief Judge Eckerstrom authored the decision of the Court, in which Presiding Judge Miller and Judge Espinosa concurred. ECKERSTROM, Chief Judge:

¶1 After a jury trial, Jacob Fimbres was convicted of second-degree trafficking in stolen property. The trial court sentenced him to an enhanced, partially mitigated, four-year prison term.

¶2 Counsel has filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Clark, 196 Ariz. 530, 2 P.3d 89 (App. 1999), asserting she has reviewed the record but found no arguable issue to raise on appeal. Consistent with Clark, 196 Ariz. 530, ¶ 32, 2 P.3d at 97, she has provided "a detailed factual and procedural history of the case with citations to the record" and asks this court to search the record for error. Fimbres has not filed a supplemental brief.

¶3 Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to sustaining the verdict, see State v. Tamplin, 195 Ariz. 246, ¶ 2, 986 P.2d 914, 914 (App. 1999), sufficient evidence supports the jury's verdict. In April 2013, Fimbres possessed and offered for sale property that had recently been stolen in a burglary; he claimed he had been offered the property by an acquaintance and had purchased it in a parking lot, acknowledging to police that he paid a very low price for it. A.R.S. §§ 13-2301(B)(3), 13-2307(A); see also A.R.S. § 13-2305 (permitting inference that person in possession of stolen property "aware of the risk that it had been stolen" when property was recently stolen or obtained at price "substantially below its fair market value"). Fimbres's prison term is within the statutory limit and was imposed properly. A.R.S. §§ 13-105(22)(c), 13-604(A), 13-2307(C); 2012 Ariz. Sess. Laws, ch. 190, § 2 (former A.R.S. § 13-703(B), (I)).

Unless otherwise noted, we cite the current versions of statutes in this decision, as their material provisions have not changed since Fimbres's offense.

¶4 Pursuant to our obligation under Anders, we have searched the record for fundamental, reversible error and found none. See State v. Fuller, 143 Ariz. 571, 575, 694 P.2d 1185, 1189 (1985) (Anders requires court to search record for fundamental error). Accordingly, we affirm Fimbres's conviction and sentence.
