    IN THE COURT OF APPEALS
    TWELFTH APPELLATE DISTRICT OF OHIO
    BROWN COUNTY
    STATE OF OHIO,                                     :
    Appellee,                                   :     CASE NO. CA2019-06-008
    :         DECISION
    - vs -                                                    11/4/2019

    ANDREW J. STEADMAN III,                            :
    Appellant.                                  :
    CRIMINAL APPEAL FROM BROWN COUNTY MUNICIPAL COURT
    Case No. CRB1800940
    Zachary A. Corbin, Brown County Prosecuting Attorney, Mary McMullen, 510 East State
    Street, Suite 2, Georgetown, Ohio 45121, for appellee
    Vivian L. Poe, P.O. Box 150, Bethel, Ohio 45106, for appellant
    Per Curiam.
    {¶1}    This cause came on to be considered upon a notice of appeal filed by
    appellant, Andrew J. Steadman III, the transcript of the docket and journal entries, the
    transcript of proceedings and original papers from the Brown County Municipal Court, and
    upon the brief filed by appellant's counsel.
    {¶2}    Appellant's counsel has filed a brief with this court pursuant to Anders v.
    California, 
    386 U.S. 738
    , 
    87 S. Ct. 1396
    (1967), which (1) indicates that a careful review of
    Brown CA2019-06-008
    the record from the proceedings below fails to disclose any errors by the trial court
    prejudicial to the rights of appellant upon which an assignment of error may be predicated;
    (2) lists one potential error "that might arguably support the appeal," Anders, at 
    744, 87 S. Ct. at 1400
    ; (3) requests that this court review the record independently to determine
    whether the proceedings are free from prejudicial error and without infringement of
    appellant's constitutional rights; (4) requests permission to withdraw as counsel for
    appellant on the basis that the appeal is wholly frivolous; and (5) certifies that a copy of both
    the brief and motion to withdraw have been served upon appellant.
    {¶3}    Having allowed appellant sufficient time to respond, and no response having
    been received, we have accordingly examined the record and find no error prejudicial to
    appellant's rights in the proceedings in the trial court. The motion of counsel for appellant
    requesting to withdraw as counsel is granted, and this appeal is dismissed for the reason
    that it is wholly frivolous.
    RINGLAND, P.J., S. POWELL and M. POWELL, JJ., concur.
