On Appeal from the 282nd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F13-30933-S
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Bridges, Francis, and Myers
Opinion by Justice Myers
A jury convicted Jennie Rebecca Gitau of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The
jury assessed punishment at three years' imprisonment and a $1000 fine, and recommended that
the sentence and fine be probated. The trial court placed appellant on eight years' community
supervision and probated the fine. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.02(a) (West 2011). On
appeal, appellant's attorney filed a brief in which she concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous
and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738
( 1967). The brief presents a professional evaluation of the record showing why, in effect, there
are no arguable grounds to advance. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811-12 (Tex. Crim.

App. [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to appellant. We advised
appellant of her right to file a pro se response, but she did not file a pro se response. See Kelly v.
State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319-21 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (identifying duties of appellate courts
and counsel in Anders cases).
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824,
826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (explaining appellate court's duty in Anders cases). We agree
the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably
support the appeal.
We affirm the trial court's judgment.
