MEMORANDUM OPINION


Appellant entered a plea of guilty to the offense of aggravated assault. The trial court deferred adjudicating guilt, placed appellant under community supervision for three years, and assessed a $200.00 fine. On July 13, 2007, the State filed a motion to adjudicate guilt. The State amended its motion on July 26, 2007. On January 11, 2007, in accordance with an agreement with the State, appellant entered a plea of true to the allegations in the State's motion. The trial court adjudicated guilt and sentenced appellant to confinement for four years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice and assessed a fine of $200.00. Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal. Appellant's appointed counsel filed a brief in which he concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811-12 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978). A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to appellant. Appellant was advised of the right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se response. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex.Crim.App. 1991). As of this date, more than sixty days has elapsed and no pro se response has been filed. We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827-28 (Tex.Crim.App. 2005). Further, we find no reversible error in the record. A discussion of the brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the state. Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
