Defendant was convicted on 10 December 2001 of possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. He was sentenced to a minimum term of thirteen months and a maximum term of sixteen months. This sentence was suspended and defendant was placed on supervised probation for twenty-four months. After defendant was found to have willfully violated terms and conditions of probation, he was placed on intensive probation for six months on 7 May 2002. A violation report was issued on 25 November 2002 alleging that defendant had again willfully violated terms and conditions of probation. A hearing was held on 7 January 2003 during which defendant admitted that he had willfully violated the terms and conditions of probation. The court revoked probation and activatedthe sentence. From this judgment defendant appeals.
Defendant's counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 18 L.Ed.2d 493, reh'g denied, 388 U.S. 924, 18 L.Ed.2d 1377 (1967), and State v. Kinch, 314 N.C. 99, 331 S.E.2d 665 (1985). She requests this Court review the record for possible prejudicial error overlooked by counsel.
