Appellant. FILED: December 23, 2013
Per Curiam. Michael Gutierrez, aka Michael Dodge pled guilty to theft in the
second degree in King County Superior Court No. 11-1-06119-8 and misdemeanor
harassment in King County Superior Court No. 12-1-00495-8. His court-appointed
attorney has filed a motion to withdraw on the ground that there is no basis for a good
faith argument on review. Pursuant to State v. Theobald, 78 Wn.2d 184, 470 P.2d 188
(1970), and Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967),
the motion to withdraw must:
(1) be accompanied by a brief referring to anything in the record that might
arguably support the appeal. (2) A copy of counsel's brief should be
furnished the indigent and (3) time allowed him to raise any points that he
chooses; (4) the court-not counsel-then proceeds, after a full examination
of all the proceedings, to decide whether the case is wholly frivolous.
Theobald, 78 Wn.2d at 185 (quoting Anders, 386 U.S. at 744).
This procedure has been followed. Gutierrez's counsel on appeal filed a brief
with the motion to withdraw. Gutierrez was served with a copy of the brief and informed
of his right to file a statement of additional grounds for review. Gutierrez filed a
supplemental brief.
No. 68755-7-1
(consol. with No. 68756-5-1/2
The material facts are accurately set forth in counsel's brief in support of the
motion to withdraw. The court has reviewed the briefs filed in this court and has
independently reviewed the entire record. The court specifically considered the
following potential issue raised by counsel and appellant pro se:
Was Gutierrez's plea made knowingly, intelligently and voluntarily?
Both counsel and appellant pro se raise the same issue and it is wholly frivolous.
The motion to withdraw is granted and the appeal is dismissed.
