Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-13-00495-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF A.M.E. and C.C.E., Children
From the 224th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2009-PA-00043
Honorable Charles E. Montemayor, Judge Presiding
Opinion by: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice
Sitting: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice
Karen Angelini, Justice
Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Delivered and Filed: October 30, 2013
AFFIRMED
This is an appeal from the trial court’s order terminating appellant’s parental rights to
A.M.E. and C.C.E. Appellant’s court-appointed appellate attorney filed a brief containing a
professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating that there are no arguable grounds to be
advanced. Counsel concludes that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the
requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). See In re R.R., No. 04-03-00096-CV,
2003 WL 21157944, at * 4 (Tex. App.—San Antonio May 21, 2003, no pet.) (applying Anders
procedure in appeal from termination of parental rights) (mem. op.); see also In re K.M., 98 S.W.3d
774, 775 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2003, order) (same).
Counsel certified that a copy of his brief was delivered to appellant who was advised of
her right to examine the record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed. After
04-13-00495-CV
reviewing the record, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The order of the
trial court is affirmed, and counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted.
Catherine Stone, Chief Justice
