Judge Jennifer B. Campbell delivered the decision of the Court, in which
Presiding Judge Diane M. Johnsen and Judge Michael J. Brown joined.


C A M P B E L L, Judge:

¶1             Michael D. Bailey timely appeals from his conviction and
sentence for burglary in the third degree, a class four felony. After searching
the record on appeal and finding no arguable, non-frivolous question of
law, Bailey’s counsel filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738 (1967), and State v. Leon, 104 Ariz. 297 (1969). He asks this court to
search the record for fundamental error. Bailey was informed of his right to
file a supplemental brief, in propria persona. We have not received a brief.
After reviewing the entire record, we find no fundamental error and affirm
Bailey’s conviction and sentence.

             FACTS AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND 1

¶2            Bailey was charged with one count of burglary in the third
degree, a class four felony. Ariz. Rev. Stat. (“A.R.S.”) § 13-1506. The State
alleged aggravating circumstances, historical and non-historical prior
felony convictions. Bailey was not present for trial which proceeded in
absentia.

¶3            At trial, the State presented the following evidence: Bailey
and his co-defendant were discovered inside the fenced commercial yard
of an automobile recycling business and resale yard, after business hours,
by an employee, J.C. J.C.’s girlfriend called the police who, upon arrival,
apprehended Bailey and his co-defendant outside the yard. J.C. identified
Bailey as one of the individuals he saw in the fenced area.

¶4             That evening, J.C. showed Officer Ruiz several items inside
the yard that did not belong to the business. These items included various
tools, gloves, a headlamp flashlight, a backpack containing a sawzall, and
pipe cutters—instruments commonly used when committing a burglary.


1      We view the facts in the light most favorable to sustaining the jury’s
verdict and resolve all reasonable inferences against Bailey. State v. Guerra,
161 Ariz. 289, 293 (1989).


                                       2
                            STATE v. BAILEY
                           Decision of the Court

Officer Ruiz sent several items for deoxyribonucleic acid (“DNA”) testing.
The profile found on a socket wrench, glove, and the headlamp matched
Bailey. The DNA profile found on other tools matched Bailey’s co-
defendant.

¶5            J.C. also showed the officer a hole in the business’s perimeter
fence. Several parts, removed from cars inside the yard, had been stacked
up around the hole. Officer Ruiz explained that preparing items for easy
removal was common during burglaries.

¶6            At trial, the jury found Bailey guilty of burglary in the third
degree. The State alleged three statutory aggravating circumstances. See
A.R.S. § 13-701(D). The jury found that each aggravating circumstance had
been proven beyond a reasonable doubt.

¶7            The trial court determined Bailey had six prior felony
convictions beyond a reasonable doubt. The trial court sentenced Bailey to
the presumptive term of ten years in the Arizona Department of
Corrections, and credited Bailey for 78 days of pre-sentence incarceration.
Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal.

                              DISCUSSION

¶8             We have reviewed the entire record for reversible error and
find none. See Leon, 104 Ariz. at 300. Bailey was represented by counsel at
all stages of the proceedings. The court had previously admonished Bailey
of the consequences of failing to appear. At the time of trial, he was not
present. Consequently, the trial court proceeded in absentia.

¶9            The evidence presented at trial was substantial and supports
the verdict. The jury was properly comprised of eight members. The court
properly instructed the jury on the elements of the charge, Bailey’s
presumption of innocence, the State’s burden of proof, and the necessity of
a unanimous verdict. The trial court received and considered a presentence
report and Bailey was given an opportunity to speak at sentencing. Finally,
his sentence was within the range of permissible sentences for his offense.
See A.R.S. §§ 13-1506(B), -703(G), -703(J).

                              CONCLUSION

¶10           We affirm Bailey’s conviction and sentence. Counsel’s
obligations pertaining to Bailey’s representation in this appeal have ended.
Defense counsel need do nothing more than inform Bailey of the status of
this appeal and his future options, unless, upon review, counsel finds an

issue appropriate for submission to the Arizona Supreme Court by petition
for review. State v. Shattuck, 140 Ariz. 582, 584-85 (1984). On the court’s
own motion, we also grant Bailey 30 days from the date of this decision to
file an in propria persona motion for reconsideration or petition for review.
