MEMORANDUM OPINION
Mario Yanez was convicted of aggravated sexual assault and indecency with a child by contact, and was sentenced to ten years and five years imprisonment, respectively. On appeal, Yanez's court-appointed appellate attorney filed a motion to withdraw and a brief in which he raises no arguable points of error and concludes the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978), and Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex.Crim.App. 1969). Yanez was provided a copy of the brief and motion to withdraw and informed of his right to review the record and file his own brief. Yanez has not filed a brief. We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We therefore affirm the trial court's judgment and grant the motion to withdraw filed by Yanez's counsel. See 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.).
