SABERS, Justice
(dissenting).
[¶ 22.] I think we are unnecessarily complicating this matter and these cases.
[¶ 23.] If an appeal has merit, file a merit brief.
[¶ 24.] If an appeal has no merit, file an adequate Anders brief and keep your client informed of same.
[¶ 25.] It is not necessary to file a motion to withdraw in either case.
[¶ 26.] In both of these cases, we should simply require counsel to file adequate Anders briefs so that we can decide both cases on the merits.
