BRIAN GLENN JORDAN, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 2 Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F09-33222-I

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Myers and Evans
Opinion by Justice Evans

Brian Glenn Jordan appeals his conviction, following the adjudication of his guilt, for possession of methamphetamine in an amount of one gram or more but less than four grams. See TEX. HEALTH & SAFETY CODE ANN. § 481.115 (a), (c) (West 2010). The trial court assessed punishment at ten years' imprisonment. On appeal, appellant's attorney 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 (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 his right to file a pro se response, but he 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.
