STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA
v. Wayne County
No. 03 CRS 57329
LAURIE MARIE LEMASTER,
Defendant.
Attorney General Roy Cooper, by Special Deputy Attorney
General J. Allen Jernigan, for the State.
Irving Joyner, for defendant-appellant.
HUDSON, Judge.
Defendant Laurie Lemaster was convicted by jury verdict of
financial identity fraud and two counts of obtaining property by
false pretenses. The trial court sentenced defendant as a prior
record level II offender to a presumptive term of 12-15 months
imprisonment for the financial identity theft conviction, and two
consecutive terms of 6-8 months for the two obtaining property by
false pretenses convictions. Defendant appeals. We see no error.
Appellate counsel for 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 hasshown 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 of her right to file written arguments with this Court
and providing her with the documents necessary for her to do so.
Defendant has filed no written arguments on her own behalf
with this Court, and a reasonable time in which she could have done
so has passed. In accordance with Anders, we have fully examined
the record to determine whether any issues of arguable merit appear
therefrom, and have found none.
No error.
Judges MCGEE and LEVINSON concur.
Report per Rule 30(e).
