SEAN PATRICK LUCAS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 23rd District Court

Brazoria County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 45,288

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

After a jury trial, appellant was convicted of the offense of possession of a controlled substance weighing more than one gram but less than four grams.  The trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for nine years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.  Appellant filed a written notice of appeal. 

Appellant=s appointed counsel 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, 87 S.Ct. 1396 (1967), presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced.  See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (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 he received a copy of the record.  He did not file a pro se response. 

We agree the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit.  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.
