Appeal from the District Court of Bell County, 146th Judicial District, No. 212,847-B, Honorable Rick Morris, Judge Presiding.
Before Justices PATTERSON, PURYEAR and PEMBERTON.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an accelerated appeal from an order terminating the parental rights of Derrasette Westbrook to her minor child, F.M. Westbrook's court-appointed attorney filed an Anders brief containing a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating that there are no arguable grounds to be advanced on appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967). Counsel concludes that the appeal is without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders. See Taylor v. Texas Dep't of Protective Regulatory Servs., 160 S.W.3d 641, 646-47 (Tex.App.-Austin 2005, pet. denied) (applying Anders procedure in appeal from termination of parental rights).
A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to Westbrook, who was advised of her right to examine the record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed. After reviewing the record, we have found nothing that would arguably support an appeal, and we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We affirm the judgment of the trial court and further grant counsel's motion to withdraw as attorney.
