STATE OF MONTANA, Plaintiff and Appellee, v. DAVID LAWRENCE PITTSLEY, JR., Defendant and Appellant.
ORDER
Counsel for Appellant David Lawrence Pittsley, Jr., filed a motion and brief asking to be allowed to withdraw from this appeal on grounds that counsel has been unable to find any nonfrivolous issues to raise on appeal, pursuant to § 46-8-103(2), MCA, and Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396 (1967). This Court granted Pittsley time to respond, but no response was filed.
The Court has now independently examined the record pursuant to § 46-8-103(2), MCA, and Anders. We conclude no arguments with potential legal merit can be raised Pittsley's appeal.
Therefore, IT IS ORDERED that this appeal is DISMISSED.
The Clerk is directed to provide copies of this Order to all counsel of record and to Pittsley personally.
