v. ORDER
KEITH CHARLES BAYLOR,
Defendant and Appellant.
Counsel for Appellant Keith Charles Baylor filed a motion and brief asking to be
allowed to withdraw from this appeal on grounds that he has been unable to find any
nonfrivolous issues to raise on appeal, pursuant to § 46-8-103(2), MCA, and Anders v.
Califbrnia, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967). Baylor was granted time to file a response,
but no response was filed.
The Court has now independently examined the record pursuant to § 46-8-103(2),
MCA, and Anders. We have determined to grant counsel's motion because we have found
no nonfrivolous issues that Baylor could raise on direct appeal.
Therefore,
IT IS ORDERED that this appeal is DISMISSED.
The Clerk is directed to provide copies of this Order to all counsel of record and to
the appellant personally.
DATED this day of September, 2021.
