Law Office of Paul S. Banales, Marana By Paul S. Banales Counsel for Appellant.

Presiding Judge Gard authored the decision of the Court, in which Judge Eckerstrom and Judge O'Neil concurred.

MEMORANDUM DECISION

GARD, Presiding Judge.

¶1 After a jury trial, Kenny Williams Jr. was convicted of criminal damage and two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon or dangerous instrument. The trial court sentenced him to concurrent prison terms, the longest of which is six years.

¶2 On appeal, counsel has filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Leon, 104 Ariz. 297 (1969), asserting he searched the record on appeal but "was unable to find any arguably meritorious issue to raise." Consistent with State v. Clark, 196 Ariz. 530, ¶ 30 (App. 1999), counsel has provided a factual and procedural history of the case with citations to the record and has asked this court to search the record for reversible error. Williams has not filed a supplemental brief.

¶3 Viewed in the light most favorable to affirming the verdicts, see State v. Holle, 240 Ariz. 300, ¶ 2 (2016), the evidence is sufficient here, see A.R.S. §§ 13-1203, 13-1204(A)(2), 13-1602(A)(1). In May 2023, Williams threw a rock through J.C.'s windshield that hit his shoulder. The same day, Williams threw a rock at T.B.'s windshield, causing shattered glass to get in T.B.'s eyes and mouth. Williams also hit several other vehicles with a wrench. The sentences imposed are within the statutory ranges. See A.R.S. §§ 13-702(D), 13-704(A), 13-1204(F), 13-1602(B)(4).

¶4 Pursuant to our obligation under Anders, we have searched the record for reversible error and have found none. See State v. Fuller, 143 Ariz. 571, 575 (1985). Accordingly, we affirm Williams's convictions and sentences.
