MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-09-00660-CV
IN THE INTEREST OF E.M.L.T.C.R., CHILD
From the 288th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2008-PA-02451
Honorable Charles E. Montemayor, Judge presiding
Opinion by: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice
Rebecca Simmons, Justice
Marialyn Barnard, Justice
Delivered and Filed: August 18, 2010
AFFIRMED
This is an appeal from the trial court’s termination of appellant’s parental rights. The
record on appeal contains a copy of the reporter’s record from the termination hearing.
Appellant’s court-appointed attorney filed a brief in which counsel concludes the trial court did
not err in ruling that appellant’s points of appeal are frivolous. 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 brief.
Appellant was informed of her right to review the record and advised of her right to file a pro se
04-09-00660-CV
brief. Appellant filed a brief in which she states she sees no reason her child could not live with
the grandparents while appellant continues to become more stable for her child.
After reviewing the record of the termination hearing, counsel’s brief, and appellant’s pro
se brief, we agree 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.).
