MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM


            D.D.O., a juvenile, appeals the trial court’s order revoking his community supervision. Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967) and Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). We affirm.

 

Background

            Appellant was charged with engaging in delinquent conduct by committing the offense of attempted theft, which, if committed by an adult, is a class A misdemeanor. Appellant was sentenced to community supervision.

            Subsequently, Appellant was charged with unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, evading arrest, and theft. The State filed a petition to modify disposition, seeking to have Appellant’s community supervision revoked. In its motion, the State alleged that Appellant had violated the terms of his community supervision as follows:

 

[T]he said child violated the reasonable and lawful order of this court, to-wit: that on or about January 25, 2003, in Smith County, Texas, the said child . . . did then and there intentionally and knowingly violate Court-ordered Conditions of Probation, in that he did not remain in the company of the person(s) to whom you were released at all times unless you ask for and receive permission prior to leaving their company at which time you will notify the person(s) to whom you were released by the Court as to where you are, whom you are with and what you are doing at all times . . .

 

Additionally, the said child violated the reasonable and lawful order of this court, to-wit: that on or about January 25, 2003, in Smith County, Texas, the said child . . . did then and there intentionally and knowingly violate Court-ordered Conditions of Probation, in that he did not remain in the home of the person to whom you are released between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Sunday–Thursday and 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. Friday–Saturday, unless the person(s) to whom he was released are given permission by the Probation Officer for you to do otherwise or unless he is with the person to whom he was released . . .



            On June 23, 2003, the trial court conducted a hearing on the State’s motion. Finding that Appellant had intentionally and knowingly violated the conditions of his community supervision, the trial court modified its prior order and committed Appellant to the Texas Youth Commission for an indeterminate sentence. This appeal followed.

 

Analysis Pursuant to Anders v. California

            Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders and Gainous. Appellant’s counsel relates that he has diligently reviewed the appellate record and is of the opinion that the record reflects no reversible error and that there is no error upon which an appeal can be predicated. He further relates that he is well acquainted with the facts in this case. In compliance with Anders, Gainous, and High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978), Appellant’s brief presents a chronological summation of the procedural history of the case, and further states that Appellant’s counsel is unable to raise any arguable issues for appeal. We have likewise reviewed the record for reversible error and have found none.

 

Conclusion

            As required by Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991), Appellant’s counsel has moved for leave to withdraw. We carried the motion for consideration with our consideration of this matter. Having done so and finding no reversible error, Appellant’s counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is hereby granted and the trial court’s judgment is affirmed.

 

Opinion delivered July 30, 2004.
