The State then filed a motion to enter adjudication of guilt and revoke community supervision. At the hearing on the motion, Cantu pled true to having violated the conditions of his community supervision and was sentenced to three years imprisonment. Cantu timely filed a notice of appeal. 04-08-00638-CR Cantu’s court-appointed appellate attorney has filed a brief in which she concludes that this appeal is frivolous and without merit. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).
