TO THE HONORABLE COURT:
Comes now Glenn J. Youngblood, Movant, asks the Court to permit him to
withdraw as counsel on appeal pursuant to the authority of Tex.R.App.P., Rule
6.5, Anders v. California, 386 US 738,744, 18 LEd.2d 493, 87 S Ct 1396 (1967);
McCoy v Court of Appeals of Wisconsin, Dist. 1, 486 U.S. 429, 108 S.Ct. 1895,
1902, 100 L.Ed. 2d 440 (1988); and would show unto the Honorable Court the
following: .
1. On 10/8/2014 Movant was appointed by order of the Honorable, David
Mendoza, Judge, 178th Judicial District Court, Harris County, Texas to
represent the Appellant, Andre Thompson in his appeal in this cause.
2. After a conscientious review of the record in this case and the applicable
law, Movant has concluded that the Appellant’s appeal in this matter lacks
merit, has no reasonable expectation for reversal of the judgment and is,
therefore, frivolous.
3. Concurrent with the filing of this motion Movant has filed a Brief In Support
Of Appellant Counsel’s Motion To Withdraw From Frivolous Appeal.
4. Movant has notified Appellant of the filing of this motion and of his right of
access to the appellate record to file a pro se brief and the time period within
which he must comply by letter and a copy of a Motion to Access the
Appellate Record a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit “A”
2 OF 4
WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, Movant prays the Honorable
Court grant this motion to withdraw from representation of Appellant in the above-
entitled and numbered cause and that he be relieved of all further duties of
representation of Appellant.
Respectfully submitted
