in the Interest of L.K.T., a Child

Opinion

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-12-00835-CV

IN THE INTEREST OF L.K.T., a Child

From the 216th Judicial District Court, Kendall County, Texas Trial Court No. 11-361-A The Honorable Cathy O. Morris, Judge Presiding

Opinion by: Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice

Sitting: Marialyn Barnard, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice

Delivered and Filed: April 17, 2013

AFFIRMED

This is an appeal from the trial court’s order terminating Appellant’s parental rights to her

child. The court-appointed appellate attorney filed a brief containing a professional evaluation of

the record and demonstrating that there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. The attorney

concludes that his client’s appeal is frivolous and without merit. The attorney’s brief meets the

requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). See In re R.R., No. 04-03-00096-

CV, 2003 WL 21157944, at *4 (Tex. App.—San Antonio May 21, 2003, no pet.) (mem. op.)

(applying Anders procedure in an appeal from a termination of parental rights); see also In re

K.M., 98 S.W.3d 774, 775 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2003, no pet.) (same).

Appellant’s attorney certified that a copy of his brief was delivered to his client who was

advised of her right to examine the record and to file a pro se brief. Appellant did not file a pro 04-12-00835-CV

se brief. After reviewing the record, we agree that Appellant’s appeal is frivolous and without

merit. We affirm the trial court’s order and grant Appellant’s attorney’s motion to withdraw.

Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
