Opinion

60112.

DECIDED OCTOBER 16, 1980.

Vehicle theft. Houston Superior Court. Before Judge Hunt.

Theron Finlayson, for appellant.

Stephen Pace, Jr., District Attorney, for appellee.


Appellant appeals his conviction of motor vehicle theft. Appellant's counsel has filed a motion in this court requesting permission to withdraw from the case.

In compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 ( 87 SC 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493) (1967), and Bethay v. State, 237 Ga. 625 ( 229 S.E.2d 406) (1976), we have conducted a full and careful examination of the record and transcript of this case to determine whether the appeal is, in fact, wholly frivolous. We find that it is. The requirements of Anders v. California, supra, have thus been met and appellant's counsel is, accordingly, granted permission to withdraw.

Our review of the record discloses no basis whatever for reversal. A rational trior of fact could reasonably have found from the evidence adduced at trial proof of appellant's guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307 (99 SC 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560) (1979); Strozier v. State 145 Ga. App. 566 ( 244 S.E.2d 89) (1978); Sweatt v. State, 149 Ga. App. 717 ( 256 S.E.2d 28) (1979).

Judgment affirmed. Quillian, P. J., and Shulman, J., concur.
