TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
NO. 45,742, HONORABLE MARTHA TRUDO, JUDGE PRESIDING
In November 1995, appellant pleaded guilty and judicially confessed to an indictment accusing him of aggravated assault. Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.02 (West 1994). The district court found that the evidence substantiated appellant's guilt, deferred further proceedings, and placed appellant on community supervision. In March 1998, after a hearing on the State's motion to adjudicate, the court revoked supervision, adjudicated appellant guilty, and assessed punishment at imprisonment for twenty years.
Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to appellant, and appellant was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal.
The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
