{¶ 2} Counsel for appellant, A.L.-P., and counsel for appellant, R.P.-C., have each
filed briefs with this court pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396
(1967), which (1) indicate that a careful review of the record from the proceedings below fail
to disclose any errors by the trial court prejudicial to the rights of appellants upon which an
assignment of error may be predicated; (2) list a combined two potential errors "that might
arguably support the appeal," Anders at 744; (3) request that this court review the record
independently to determine whether the proceedings are free from prejudicial error and
without infringement of appellants' constitutional rights; (4) request permission to withdraw as
counsel for appellants on the basis that the appeals are wholly frivolous; and (5) certify that a
copy of the brief and motion to withdraw have been served upon appellants.
{¶ 3} Having allowed appellants sufficient time to respond, and no response having
been received, we have accordingly examined the record and find no error prejudicial to
appellants' rights in the proceedings in the trial court. The motions of counsel for appellants
requesting to withdraw as counsel are granted, and these appeals are dismissed for the
reason that they are wholly frivolous.
S. POWELL, P.J., RINGLAND and HENDRICKSON, JJ., concur.
