Brian Davidson, 10 Journal Square, Suite 300, Hamilton, Ohio 45011, attorney and guardian ad litem for child, A.R. Jr. Per Curiam. {¶1} This cause came on to be considered upon a notice of appeal filed by appellant, A.R., Sr., the transcript of the docket and journal entries, the transcript of Butler CA2018-11-216 CA2018-11-217 CA2018-11-218 proceedings and original papers from the Butler County Court of Common Pleas, Juvenile Division, and upon the briefs. {¶2} Appellant's counsel has filed a brief with this court pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396 (1967), which (1) indicates that a careful review of the record from the proceedings below fails to disclose any errors by the trial court prejudicial to the rights of appellant upon which an assignment of error may be predicated; (2) lists two potential errors "that might arguably support the appeal," Anders, at 744, 87 S.Ct. at 1400; (3) requests that this court review the record independently to determine whether the proceedings are free from prejudicial error and without infringement of appellant's constitutional rights; (4) requests permission to withdraw as counsel for appellant on the basis that the appeal is wholly frivolous; and (5) certifies that a copy of both the brief and motion to withdraw have been served upon appellant at appellant's last known address. {¶3} Having allowed appellant sufficient time to respond, and no response having been received, we have accordingly examined the record and find no error prejudicial to appellant's rights in the proceedings in the trial court. The motion of counsel for appellant requesting to withdraw as counsel is granted, and this appeal is dismissed for the reason that it is wholly frivolous. RINGLAND, P.J., S. POWELL and M. POWELL, JJ., concur. -2- [Cite as In re G.R., 2019-Ohio-831.]
