You are hereby notified that the Court has entered the following opinion and order:



	2014AP2875-CRNM	State of Wisconsin v. Anthony Clarence Woods (L.C. #2013CF4449)

Before Curley, P.J.

By order dated June 16, 2015, this court directed Attorney Michael S. Holzman, appellate counsel for Anthony Clarence Woods, to file a supplemental no-merit report in this matter. Attorney Holzman now advises that, in his view, the no-merit appeal should be dismissed to permit Woods “to file appropriate pleadings.” Counsel therefore seeks voluntary dismissal of the no-merit appeal and an extension of appellate deadlines. A no-merit proceeding is appropriate only if counsel is convinced that an appeal would be wholly frivolous. McCoy v. Court of Appeals, 486 U.S. 429, 437 (1988). Accordingly, the court will grant the relief requested.

IT IS ORDERED that the no-merit report is rejected and this appeal is voluntarily dismissed without prejudice.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the deadline for filing a postconviction motion or notice of appeal is extended through September 14, 2015. See Wis. Stat. Rule 809.82(2)(a) (2013-14).
