Syllabus

We find no arguable merit to this appeal under Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967). Appellant was convicted of Domestic Violence and Abduction after four independent eyewitnesses and two police officers testified about the offenses. Despite the victim's denials, the evidence overwhelmingly supports the verdicts. Based on appellant's four separate prior felonies of violence, and their prison terms, two three year consecutive sentences are not clearly and convincingly unsupported by the record or contrary to law. There are no non-frivolous issues supporting a potential assignment of error of arguable merit. Judgment affirmed.
