                      Appellant.          )       FILED: June 11,2018
                                          )

       PER CURIAM. Chad Smith challenges the judgment and sentence imposed

following his guilty plea to first degree theft. 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. Smith's counsel on appeal filed a brief with

the motion to withdraw. Smith was served with a copy of the brief and informed of his

right to file a statement of additional grounds for review. Smith did not file a

supplemental brief.
No. 77027-6-1/2

       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 issues raised by counsel:

          Did the trial court err in ordering restitution?

       The issues raised by counsel are wholly frivolous. The motion to withdraw is

granted and the appeal is dismissed.

                                                   FOR THE COURT:
