Topic: Conspiracy to commit armed robbery - Lindsey brief

Summary of the Facts: Dexter Rhodes was convicted of conspiracy to commit armed robbery and sentenced to five years, with two and one-half years to serve and two and one-half years suspended on the condition he completes two and one-half years of supervised probation. He appeals.

Summary of Opinion Analysis: Rhodes’s appellate counsel filed a brief pursuant to Lindsey v. State, 939 So. 2d 743 (Miss. 2005), stating no arguable issues existed for appeal. Rhodes filed a pro se brief, arguing he was offered immunity for his statements implicating others in the armed robbery. However, Rhodes offers no evidence to support this assertion. The record does not show any arguable issues for review.
