Description
This is a direct appeal by the defendant, Bill Franklin Marvin, from his plea of guilty to second degree murder. Marvin claims that his trial attorney, John Caine, was ineffective when he advised Marvin to plead guilty as charged. Marvin also contends that his plea was not knowing and voluntary because the state failed to fulfill its part of the bargain when it did not intervene on his behalf in disposing of pending extradition proceedings. Finally, Marvin argues that his current counsel, Kent E. Snider, has a conflict of interest because he is associated with the Weber County Public Defender's Association, to which Caine also belongs. Snider has filed an Anders brief and has asked to withdraw as counsel. We find the Anders brief sufficient and, having independently examined the issues raised therein, find them to be wholly frivolous. Therefore, we grant Snider permission to withdraw from the appeal, and we affirm Marvin's conviction.
