| Topic: | Statutory rape & Fondling - Lindsey brief |
| Summary of the Facts: | Michael Easley convicted of two counts of statutory rape and two counts of fondling. Finding no arguable issue to raise on appeal, Easley’s attorney filed a brief in compliance with Lindsey v. State, 939 So. 2d 743 (Miss. 2005). |
| Summary of Opinion Analysis: | Easley’s appellate counsel complied with the procedure set forth in Lindsey v. State. Easley failed to file a pro se brief. A review of the record shows no arguable issue warranting supplemental briefing. And there is no reversible error. |
