PAUL GLEN WILLIS III, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Opinion By Justice Lang
Paul Glen Willis appeals his convictions of two counts of aggravated robbery and forgery. Punishment was assessed for each aggravated robbery offense at twenty-four years of imprisonment and for the offense of forgery at two years of confinement in a state jail facility.
Willis's attorney filed a brief in which she 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 (Tex.Crim.App. [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to Willis. We advised Willis he has a right to file a pro se response. Willis, however, did not file a pro se response.
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. 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.
