MEMORANDUM DECISION

Judge Jon W. Thompson delivered the decision of the Court, in which 

Presiding Judge Kent E. Cattani and Judge Paul J. McMurdie joined.

T H O M P S O N, Judge:

¶1 This case comes to us as an appeal under Anders v. California, 

386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Leon, 104 Ariz. 297, 451 P.2d 878 (1969). 

Counsel for Jalisa Ilona Jackson (defendant) has advised us that, after 

searching the entire record, she has been unable to discover any arguable 

questions of law and has filed a brief requesting this court to conduct an 

Anders review of the record. Defendant has been afforded an opportunity 

to file a supplemental brief in propria persona, but she has not done so.

¶2 In February 2015, the defendant was at a Carl’s Jr. restaurant, 

eating lunch with her five children. E.C. was also at the Carl’s Jr., entering

the drive-thru with her dogs in the backseat of her car. E.C. got to the drivethru window, rolled her window down and placed her order. After placing 

her order, E.C. reached over to the passenger floorboard, picked up her 

purse, and put it on her lap to pay. There were cars in front of her car and 

a car pulled in behind her. While she waited in line, she turned around in 

her seat to talk to her dogs. E.C. felt her purse move, and when she turned 

around she saw a woman running away. The woman was holding E.C.’s 

purse against her chest. E.C. testified that she paid forty-dollars for the 

purse and it contained two cell phones, which cost six hundred dollars to 

replace, an eighteen-dollar wallet, her address book, identification, food 

stamp card, social security card, and eighteen dollars in cash. 

¶3 L.P. and her passenger were behind E.C.’s car in the Carl’s Jr. 

drive-thru. L.P. saw a “lady” approach E.C.’s car, take the purse, and then 

“r[a]n back” to her blue Cherokee “SUV”. She watched the Cherokee back 

up to leave and backed up to get its license plate number. After noting the 

plate number, L.P.’s passenger called 9-1-1 and gave details of what she 

observed as well as the license plate number. 

¶4 The detective assigned to this case reviewed the original 

report, which contained the provided license plate number. Using the 

reported vehicle information, the detective did a search through the 

Arizona Department of Motor Vehicles’ (MVD) records and found that the

vehicle came back registered to the defendant. Using the defendant’s MVD 

record photo and booking photos of other individuals, the detective created

a photo line-up. 

¶5 L.P. went to the police station about two weeks after the 

incident, where she was read a photographic line-up advisement by the 

detective and shown a page with six pictures on it. L.P. looked at each face 

on the page and, within about “five seconds,” picked out the defendant’s

photo from the line-up as the person who took E.C.’s purse.

¶6 The state charged the defendant with one count of burglary 

in the third degree, a class 4 felony, and one count of theft, a class 6 felony.

At trial, L.P. again identified the defendant as the individual who stole 

E.C.’s purse. A jury convicted the defendant of burglary in the third degree 

and theft of property from a person, with the property valued at less than a 

thousand dollars. In September 2016, the trial court sentenced defendant 

to 15 days in jail and 3 years of supervised probation for both counts.

¶7 We have read and considered defendant’s Anders brief, and 

we have searched the entire record for reversible error. See Leon, 104 Ariz. 

at 300, 451 P.2d at 881. We find none. All of the proceedings were 

conducted in compliance with the Arizona Rules of Criminal Procedure, 

and the sentence imposed was within the statutory limits.

¶8 Upon the filing of this decision, counsel shall inform the 

defendant of the status of the appeal and her options. Defense counsel has 

no further obligations, unless, upon review, counsel finds an issue 

appropriate for submission to the Arizona Supreme Court by petition for 

review. See State v. Shattuck, 140 Ariz. 582, 584-84 (1984). The defendant 

shall have thirty days from the date of this decision in which to proceed, if 

she so desires, with an in propria persona motion for reconsideration or 

 

1 The trial court deferred defendant’s jail term because she was 

pregnant at the time of sentencing. However, defendant was noncompliant 

with the terms of probation and failed to self-surrender for her deferred jail 

term on April 1, 2017. The court extended her sentence to 3 months’ jail 

time, but reinstated the 3 years of supervised probation.
