308 S.E.2d 617 (Ga. Ct. App. 1983)

Opinion

66571.

DECIDED SEPTEMBER 27, 1983.

Robbery, etc. Chatham Superior Court. Before Judge Cheatham.

Spencer Lawton, Jr., District Attorney, David T. Lock, Assistant District Attorney, for appellee.


Appellant was convicted of robbery by force, aggravated assault, and two counts of aggravated sodomy. 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, has any merit. We have therefore 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. See Carter v. State, 168 Ga. App. 177 (___ S.E.2d ___); 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. McMurray, P. J., and Birdsong, J., concur.
