MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an accelerated appeal of a trial court's judgment involuntarily committing B.O.P. for temporary mental health services. Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). See State of Texas for the Best Int. And Protection of B.O.P., 228 S.W.3d 219 (Tex.App.-San Antonio 2007, no pet.) (applying Anders procedure in appeal from court-ordered mental health commitment). Counsel concludes the appeal has no merit. Counsel provided B.O.P. with a copy of the brief and informed her of her right to review the record and file her own brief. See Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 85-86 (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.). This court also issued an order informing B.O.P. of her right to file a pro se brief; however, B.O.P. did not file a brief.
After reviewing the record and counsel's brief, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Appellate counsel's motion to withdraw is granted. Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d at 86; Bruns, 924 S.W.2d at 177 n. 1.
