        "text": "Mr. JUSTICE LORENZ\ndelivered the opinion of the court:\nOn December 7, 1970, defendant entered a guilty plea to a charge of attempted burglary and was sentenced to a term of one to two years. At that time the trial judge advised defendant of his right to appeal, his right to a transcript of proceedings and his right to appointed appellate counsel in the event that he did not have the funds to hire private counsel.\nOn September 10, 1971, the public defender, who was appointed to prosecute an appeal on defendant\u2019s behalf, moved that this court grant him leave to withdraw from the case on the grounds that he was unable to find any basis which might arguably support an appeal. This motion was filed with a supporting brief pursuant to Anders v. California (1967), 386 U.S. 738.\nThis brief, which was obviously prepared with skill after a conscientious examination of the record, stated that the only ground which might arguably support an appeal (and in the opinion of defense counsel was without merit) would be that the court did not fully admonish the defendant of the significance and consequences of his guilty plea. While the brief considered this point in detail, suffice it to say that the record established that the court\u2019s admonishment of defendant was sufficient. Ill. Rev. Stat. 1969, ch. 38, par. 115 \u2014 2; Supreme Court Rule 402.\nOn September 3,1971, defendant was served by mail with copies of the public defender\u2019s motion and brief. On September 22, 1971, this court notified defendant that he might have until November 21, 1971, to raise matter in support of his appeal. Defendant\u2019s reply of October 15, 1972, stated that he waived the jury trial because of his \u201cpast prison conviction\u201d and that he was promised a sentence of a year to a year and day or probation, but received a sentence of one to two years.\nIn addition to our consideration of the defendant\u2019s letter and the brief filed by the public defender, we have made \u201ca full examination of all the proceedings\u201d as required by Anders v. California. We conclude that there are no matters \u201carguable on their merits\u201d and therefore an appeal would be \u201cwholly frivolous.\u201d\nDefendant\u2019s attorney is given leave to withdraw, and the judgment is affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.\nENGLISH, P. J., and DRUCKER, J\u201e concur.",
