Dontriece fabian Missouri, Appellant
V.
The State of Texas, Appellee
On Appeal from the 174th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Case No. 1164246
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, Dontriece Fabian Missouri, without an agreed punishment recommendation from the State, pleaded guilty to the offense of aggravated robbery. The trial court ordered a presentence investigation and, after a punishment hearing, sentenced him to confinement for five years.
We affirm.
Appellant’s counsel on appeal has filed a brief stating that the record presents no reversible error, the appeal is without merit and is frivolous, and the appeal must be dismissed or affirmed. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, (1967). The brief meets the requirements of Anders by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and detailing why there are no arguable grounds for reversal. Id. at 744, 87 S. Ct. at 1400; see also High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 810 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).
Counsel represents that she has served a copy of the brief on appellant and advised him of his right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se brief. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). More than 30 days have passed, and appellant has not filed a pro se brief. Having reviewed the record and counsel’s brief, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit and that there is no reversible error. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826–27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
We affirm the judgment of the trial court and grant counsel’s motion to withdraw.[1] Attorney counsel must immediately send appellant the notice required by Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 6.5(c) and file a copy of that notice with the Clerk of this Court.
