1Opinion of the CourtWicker, J.

11 Defendant, Ahmad Wiley, appeals his convictions and sentences for manslaughter and obstruction of justice. Defendant’s appointed appellate counsel has filed an appellate brief pursuant to Anders v, California1 and has further filed a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. For the following reasons, we affirm defendant’s convictions and grant counsel’s motion to withdraw. However, an error patent review reflects that the trial court imposed indeterminate sentences. Accordingly, we vacate defendant’s sentences and remand this matter to the trial court for resentenc-ing.
