MEMORANDUM OPINION
On July 16, 2004, in cause number 56386, appellant Jesse Lee McDowell, Jr. was placed on deferred adjudication community supervision for ten years after he pleaded guilty to sexual assault. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.011 (West Supp. 2010). On May 19, 2010, in cause number 66352, appellant was indicted for possessing more than four grams of 3,4-methylenedioxy methamphetamine. See Tex. Health Safety Code Ann. §§ 481.103(a), .113(a), (d) (West Supp. 2010). One month later, a motion to adjudicate was filed in cause number 56386 alleging, among other things, that appellant violated the terms of his supervision by committing the controlled substance offense. On August 23, 2010, appellant pleaded guilty to the indictment in cause number 66352 and true to the motion to adjudicate in cause number 56386. On September 28, 2010, the trial court rendered judgments convicting appellant in both causes and sentencing him to eleven years' imprisonment for the sexual assault and ten years' imprisonment for the controlled substance possession. Appellant's court-appointed attorney has filed a motion to withdraw supported by a brief concluding that these appeals are frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the records demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). Appellant received a copy of counsel's brief and was advised of his right to examine the records and file a pro se brief. See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744. No pro se brief has been filed. We have reviewed the records and find no reversible error. See Garner v. State, 300 S.W.3d 763, 766 (Tex. Crim. App. 2009); Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). We agree with counsel that the appeals are frivolous. Counsel's motion to withdraw is granted. The judgments of conviction are affirmed.
