Case Name: Parker v. State

Citation: 2006 WY 73

Docket Number: 05-275

Order Affirming the Judgment and Sentence of the District Court

Appellant: John David Parker

Appellee: State

The matter came before the Court upon its own motion following notification that Appellant failed to file a pro se brief within the time allotted by the Court. Following a careful review of the record and the brief submitted by Appellant’s court appointed appellate counsel, the Court entered its “Order Granting Permission for Court Appointed Counsel to Withdraw and Conditionally Affirming Judgment and Sentence” on May 2, 2006. Appellant had until June 15, 2006 to raise points that convinced the Court that the captioned appeal was less than wholly frivolous. Appellant has not filed a brief or other pleading within the time allotted, so the Court found that the judgment and sentence in the matter should be affirmed. Further, the matter was remanded to the district court for an entry of an order correcting the restitution provision of the “Judgment, Sentence and Order of Incarceration” to indicate that the Division of Criminal Investigation was the victim in this matter.

Affirmed.
