IN THE MATTER OF A.L.H., a Juvenile

From the 289th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 95-JUV-01106 Honorable Carmen Kelsey, Judge Presiding

Opinion by: Phil Hardberger, Chief Justice

Sitting: Phil Hardberger, Chief Justice

Alma L. López, Justice

Karen Angelini, Justice

Delivered and Filed: July 29, 1998

AFFIRMED

Appellant was found to have engaged in delinquent conduct. Appellant's court-appointed appellate attorney filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), in which he concludes that "no reversible is reflected in the record." We previously held that Anders is applicable in a juvenile appeal. See In re A.L.H., No. 04-96-00657-CV, slip op. at 3 (Tex. App.--San Antonio, June 3, 1998, no pet. h.); see also In re D.A.S., Nos. 97-1007, 97-1008, 1998 WL 352963 (Tex. July 3, 1998). Counsel provided the appellant and his guardian with a copy of the Anders brief and his motion to withdraw and informed them of the appellant's right to examine the record and file his own brief. Appellant has not filed a brief.

We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. We find the appeal to be frivolous and without merit. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Furthermore, we grant appellate counsel's motion to withdraw. Nichols v. State, 1997 WL 426267, at *3, No. 04-97-00030-CR (Tex. App.--San Antonio July 23, 1997, no pet.).
