The defendant was represented by court-appointed counsel at all times.

[345]*345 In accordance with the mandate of A.R.S. § 13-1715, subsec. B and the numerous cases applying the.doctrine that an appellate court must search the record for fundamental error in all criminal appeals, this Court has examined the entire record and, after doing so, we are compelled to agree with appellant’s counsel that the record discloses no error and, therefore, hold that no error or violation of any of the appellant’s rights occurred during the proceedings in the lower court and that no basis exists upon which an appeal can he based. State v. Burrell, 96 Ariz. 233, 393 P.2d 921 (1964) ; State v. Denmon, 3 Ariz. App. 217, 413 P.2d 276 (1966); State v. White, 2 Ariz.App. 455, 409 P.2d 739 (1966).
