IN THE INTEREST OF J.J.L., J.M.L., L.M.E., G.X.E., Jr., and M.A.E.
From the 57th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2009-PA-00463
Honorable Charles E. Montemayor, Judge Presiding
Opinion by: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
Sitting: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice

Delivered and Filed: February 9, 2011
AFFIRMED
This is an appeal from the trial court’s termination of appellant’s parental rights. See
TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. § 161.001(1)(D), (E), (N), (O), (2) (Vernon 2002). After the record from
the trial on the merits was filed, appellant’s court-appointed 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 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). Counsel provided appellant with a copy of the
04-10-00061-CV
brief. Appellant was informed of her right to review the record and advised of her right to file a
pro se brief. Appellant has not filed a brief.
After reviewing the record, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The
judgment of the trial court is affirmed. We GRANT counsel’s motion to withdraw. 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.).
