People v. Moore

Defendant appealed from the trial court’s order denying him leave to file a successive post-conviction petition. The Office of the State Appellate Defendant withdrew as counsel after determining that defendant’s appeal lacked arguable merit. The appellate court affirmed the trial court order and ordered defendant to show cause as to why sanctions should not be entered against him for filing a frivolous appeal. (CAVANAGH and KNECHT, concurring)
