No. 2 CA-CR 2023-0216 Filed April 30, 2024 THIS DECISION DOES NOT CREATE LEGAL PRECEDENT AND MAY NOT BE CITED EXCEPT AS AUTHORIZED BY APPLICABLE RULES. NOT FOR PUBLICATION See Ariz. R. Sup. Ct. 111(c)(1); Ariz. R. Crim. P. 31.19(e). Appeal from the Superior Court in Maricopa County No. CR2021114445002DT The Honorable Eartha K. Washington, Judge Pro Tempore AFFIRMED COUNSEL The Law Offices of Kyle T. Green P.L.L.C., Tempe By Kyle Green Counsel for Appellant STATE v. CARRIZOZA Decision of the Court MEMORANDUM DECISION Chief Judge Vásquez authored the decision of the Court, in which Presiding Judge Eppich and Judge Gard concurred. V Á S Q U E Z, Chief Judge: ¶1 After a jury trial, appellant Cristobal Carrizoza Jr. was convicted of aggravated robbery. The trial court sentenced him to 11.25 years’ imprisonment. ¶2 On appeal, counsel has filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Leon, 104 Ariz. 297 (1969), asserting he “searched the record on appeal” but found “[n]o arguable question of law.” Consistent with State v. Clark, 196 Ariz. 530, ¶ 30 (App. 1999), counsel has provided a factual and procedural history of the case with citations to the record and has asked this court to search the record for reversible error. Carrizoza has not filed a supplemental brief. ¶3 Viewed in the light most favorable to affirming the verdict, see State v. Holle, 240 Ariz. 300, ¶ 2 (2016), the evidence is sufficient here, see A.R.S. §§ 13-301, 13-1902, 13-1903. In April 2021, Carrizoza and an accomplice confronted D.W., assaulted him, and took a hammer and his wallet before running away. The sentence imposed is within the statutory range. See A.R.S. §§ 13-703(C), (J), 13-1903(B). ¶4 Pursuant to our obligation under Anders, we have searched the record for reversible error and have found none. See State v. Fuller, 143 Ariz. 571, 575 (1985). Accordingly, we affirm Carrizoza’s conviction and sentence. 2
