MEMORANDUM OPINION
Defendant, Ruben Juarez, pled nolo contendere to failure to register as a sex offender. Pursuant to a plea bargain, the court sentenced him to three years' confinement, suspended for three years. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke his probation, alleging he had violated the terms of his probation. Defendant pled true to the State's allegations. The trial court revoked defendant's probation and sentenced him to three years' confinement and a $1200 fine. Defendant's court-appointed appellate attorney filed a brief containing a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating that there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. Counsel concludes that the appeal is without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Defendant was informed of his right to review the record. Counsel provided defendant with a copy of the brief and advised him of his right to file a pro se brief. Defendant has not filed a brief. After reviewing the record, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Furthermore, we grant counsel's motion to withdraw. Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 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.).
