FRANCHESA ICHELLE WILLIAMS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 182nd District Court

 Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1084329

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant entered a plea of Aguilty@ to the offense of credit/debit card abuse.  The trial court deferred adjudication and placed appellant on community supervision for five years.  Subsequently, the State moved to adjudicate guilt.  Appellant entered a plea of Atrue@ to the State=s allegations.  The trial court found the State=s allegations to be true and proceeded to adjudicate guilt.  The trial court sentenced appellant on June 6, 2008, to confinement for six months in the State Jail Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.  Appellant filed a 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 requirements 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, 811-12 (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. Crim. App. 1991).  As of this date, more than sixty days has elapsed and 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.  See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827-28 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).  Further, we find no reversible error in the record.  A discussion of the brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the state. 

Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
