156 Ga. App. 59

Opinion

60652.

SUBMITTED SEPTEMBER 10, 1980.

DECIDED OCTOBER 9, 1980.

Robbery by intimidation. Chatham Superior Court. Before Judge Oliver.

Stephen H. Harris, for appellant.

Andrew J. Ryan, III, District Attorney, for appellee.

BIRDSONG, Judge.

Appellant was convicted of three counts of robbery by intimidation with co-defendant Edward Jones (see Jones v. State, 156 Ga. App. 56, ante (1980)). Appellant's counsel has filed a request for permission to withdraw from the case.

We find that counsel's request comports with the requirements recited in Bethay v. State, 237 Ga. 625, 626 ( 229 S.E.2d 406) and set forth in Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 ( 87 SC 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493). Upon a full examination of the record and transcript in the case, we find the appeal to be wholly frivolous. Bethay supra; Williams v. State, 243 Ga. 531 ( 255 S.E.2d 51). Accordingly counsel is granted permission to withdraw and the appeal is dismissed.

Judgment affirmed. Deen, C. J., and Sognier, J., concur.

SUBMITTED SEPTEMBER 10, 1980 — DECIDED OCTOBER 9, 1980.
