COLSON v. STATE, 163 Ga. App. 63 (1982)

293 S.E.2d 719

COLSON v. THE STATE.

64287.Court of Appeals of Georgia.
DECIDED JULY 13, 1982.

DEEN, Presiding Judge.

Gloria S. Colson was convicted of violating the Georgia Controlled Substances Act (possession of heroin).

Appellant’s appointed counsel has filed a motion in this court requesting permission to withdraw and, in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (87 SC 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493) (1967) an Bethay v. State, 237 Ga. 625 (229 S.E.2d 406) (1976), filed a brief raising points of law which might arguably support the appeal. Pursuant to the rulings in Anders and Bethay, we conducted an extensive examination of the record and transcript filed in this case in order to determine if the appeal is, in fact, frivolous. Based upon that review, we have granted counsel’s motion to withdraw and find that the requirements of Anders and Bethay have been met, that no reversible error appears in the record and that a rational trier of fact could have found from the evidence presented at trial that the appellant was guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. Drayton v. State, 157 Ga. App. 872 (278 S.E.2d 758) (1981).

Judgment affirmed. Sognier and Pope, JJ., concur.

DECIDED JULY 13, 1982.
Drug violation. Bibb Superior Court. Before Judge Bell, Senior Judge.

Willis B. Sparks III, District Attorney, Vernon R. Beinke, Thomas J. Matthews, Assistant District Attorneys, for appellee.
