NORTH CAROLINA COURT OF APPEALS
Filed: 5 October 2004
STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
v. Rowan County
Nos. 03 CRS 50435 - 50439
REGINALD LAMORAS BROWN
Appeal by defendant from judgments entered 16 October 2003 by
Judge W. Erwin Spainhour in Rowan County Superior Court. Heard in
the Court of Appeals 4 October 2004.
Attorney General Roy Cooper, by Assistant Attorney General
Marc Bernstein, for the State.
Haakon Thorsen, for defendant-appellant.
TYSON, Judge.
Reginald Lamoras Brown (defendant) was convicted of five
counts of breaking or entering and two counts of larceny after
breaking or entering. The trial court entered judgment thereon and
sentenced defendant to two consecutive terms of 151 to 191 months
imprisonment. Defendant appeals.
I. Anders Review
Counsel appointed to represent defendant has been unable to
identify any issue with sufficient merit to support a meaningful
argument for relief on appeal and asks that this Court conduct its
own review of the record for possible prejudicial error. Counsel
has also shown to the satisfaction of this Court that he has
complied with the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S.738, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, reh'g denied, 388 U.S. 924, 18 L. Ed. 2d
1377 (1967), and State v. Kinch, 314 N.C. 99, 331 S.E.2d 665
(1985), by advising defendant by letter dated 7 July 2001 of his
right to file written arguments with this Court and providing him
with the documents necessary for him to do so.
Defendant has not filed any written arguments on his own
behalf with this Court. A reasonable time in which he could have
done so has passed.
II. Conclusion
We have fully examined the record to determine whether any
issues of arguable merit appear. We have been unable to find any
prejudicial error and conclude that the appeal is wholly frivolous.
No error.
Judges WYNN and GEER concur.
Report per Rule 30(e).
