Appeal from the District Court of Lampasas County, 27th Judicial District, No. 8325, Honorable Joe Carroll, Judge Presiding. Affirmed.

Before Chief Justice JONES, Justices PEMBERTON and WALDROP.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Leroy Williamson was convicted after a nonjury trial of aggravated sexual assault of a child. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.021 (West Supp. 2009). After Williamson pleaded true to allegations that he had previously been convicted of two felony offenses, the trial court assessed sentence at thirty-five years in prison. Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by demonstrating that the only arguable contentions that might support the appeal are ultimately without merit. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). Appellant received a copy of counsel's brief and was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed. We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. Counsel's motion to withdraw is granted. The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
