Appellant received a thirty-day suspended jail sentence, was fined $100, and was ordered to pay costs. Pursuant to Anders v.

The motion is accompanied by an abstract and addendum of the proceedings below and a brief in which counsel explains why there is nothing in the record that would support an appeal. The clerk of this court served appellant with a copy of his counsel’s brief and notified him of his right to file a pro se statement of points for reversal within thirty days. Appellant has filed no statement.
