Appellee
From the 227th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

Honorable Philip A. Kazen, Jr., Judge Presiding
Opinion by: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
Phylis J. Speedlin, Justice
Marialyn Barnard, Justice
Delivered and Filed: March 18, 2009
AFFIRMED
Defendant’s court-appointed appellate attorney filed a brief containing a professional
evaluation of the record and demonstrating there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. Counsel
concludes that the appeal is without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967). Defendant was informed of his right to review the record. Counsel provided
defendant with a copy of the brief and advised him of his right to file a pro se brief. Defendant did
not file a pro se brief.
04-08–00649-CR
After reviewing the record and counsel’s brief, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and
without merit. Accordingly, we affirm the trial court’s judgment, and we GRANT appellate
counsel’s motion to withdraw.1 Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 86 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997,
no pet.); Bruns v. State, 924 S.W.2d 176, 177 n.1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1996, no pet.).
