JAMES KEITH, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Affirmed and Memorandum Opinion filed May 29, 2014.
On Appeal from the 184th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1349374
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant entered a plea of guilty to aggravated assault of a family member and the trial court placed appellant on deferred adjudication community supervision. The State filed a motion to adjudicate on multiple grounds. Appellant entered a plea of not true to all the allegations. After a hearing, the trial court found appellant violated the terms and conditions of his community supervision, adjudicated appellant's guilt and sentenced him to confinement for twelve years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Appellant filed a timely 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 requirement 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 (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. (Tex. Crim. App.1991). As of this date, 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. Further, we find no reversible error in the record. We are not to address the merits of each claim raised in an Anders brief or a pro se response when we have determined there are no arguable grounds for review. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827-28 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
