MEMORANDUM DECISION
Chief Judge Vásquez authored the decision of the Court, in which Presiding Judge Staring and Judge Brearcliffe concurred.
VÁSQUEZ, Chief Judge:
¶1 After a jury trial, Christopher Lechuga was convicted of possession of a dangerous drug and possession of drug paraphernalia. The trial court suspended the imposition of sentence and placed Lechuga on concurrent, twenty-four-month probation terms.
¶2 Counsel has filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Clark, 196 Ariz. 530 (App. 1999), stating she has reviewed the record but found no "arguable question of law" and asking this court to review the record for error. Lechuga has not filed a supplemental brief.
¶3 Viewed in the light most favorable to sustaining the jury's verdict, see State v. Tamplin, 195 Ariz. 246, ¶ 2 (App. 1999), the evidence is sufficient here, see A.R.S. §§ 13-3407(A)(1), 13-3415(A). During a search following a traffic stop in November 2017, law enforcement officers found nearly a half-gram of methamphetamine and a methamphetamine pipe in Lechuga's vehicle. The terms of probation were lawfully imposed. See A.R.S. §§ 13-901(A), 13-902(A)(3), (4), 13-3407(B)(1), 13-3415(A).
¶4 We affirm Lechuga's convictions and dispositions.
