LEVINSON, Judge.
Defendant was convicted on 10 December 2001 of possession of
a firearm by a convicted felon. He was sentenced to a minimum term
of thirteen months and a maximum term of sixteen months. This
sentence was suspended and defendant was placed on supervised
probation for twenty-four months. After defendant was found to
have willfully violated terms and conditions of probation, he was
placed on intensive probation for six months on 7 May 2002. A
violation report was issued on 25 November 2002 alleging that
defendant had again willfully violated terms and conditions of
probation. A hearing was held on 7 January 2003 during which
defendant admitted that he had willfully violated the terms and
conditions of probation. The court revoked probation and activatedthe sentence. From this judgment defendant appeals.
Defendant's counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, reh'g denied, 388 U.S.

S.E.2d 665 (1985). She requests this Court review the record for
possible prejudicial error overlooked by counsel. Counsel has
attached to the brief a letter she wrote advising defendant in
accordance with these decisions. To assist defendant with
preparation of his own written arguments, counsel provided
