JULY 3, 2002

APPEAL FROM THE PULASKI COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT

[NO. CR 2000-3459]

HONORABLE JOHN W. LANGSTON, JUDGE

AFFIRMED

Appellant, Bruce Darnell Cooney, was convicted of the charge of delivery of a controlled substance, cocaine, by a Pulaski County Circuit Court jury. The jury sentenced Mr. Cooney to ten years' imprisonment in the Arkansas Department of Correction. Cooney's attorney, pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-3(j)(1), filed a motion to withdraw as counsel on the basis that this appeal is without merit. The motion is accompanied by an abstract of the proceedings below, including all objections and motions decided adversely to appellant, and by a brief in which counsel explains why there is nothing in the record that would support an appeal. In accordance with Campbell v. State, 74 Ark. App. 277, 47 S.W.3d 915, reh'g den., 53 S.W.3d 48 (2001), appellant has included the entire record of the trial and all proceedings, including voir dire and opening and closing statements.

The clerk of this court provided appellant with a copy of his counsel's brief and notified him

of his right to file a pro se statement of points for reversal within thirty days. Mr. Cooney did not file any pro se points in this matter.

From our review of the entire record and the brief presented to us, we find compliance with Rule 4-3(j), and that the appeal is wholly without merit. Therefore, pursuant to sections (a) and (b) of In re Memorandum Opinions, 16 Ark. App. 301, 700 S.W.2d 63 (1985), we issue this memorandum opinion granting counsel's motion to withdraw and affirming the court's judgment.

Affirmed.

Stroud, C.J., and Bird, J., agree.
