MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Dorsey, Hinojosa, and Rodriguez

Opinion by Justice Dorsey

Wilhelmina Williams was convicted by a jury of two counts of assault on a public officer. The court sentenced her to five years confinement, and suspended her confinement and placed her on community supervision for five years. She wishes to appeal her conviction and sentence and has filed a timely notice of appeal with this court.

Williams' court-appointed counsel has filed a brief in which counsel has concluded that an appeal would be wholly frivolous and without merit. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Counsel provided a copy of this brief to Williams, and she has exercised her right to file a pro se brief in support of her appeal. We have thoroughly reviewed the record as mandated by Anders and we agree with counsel that any appeal of this matter would be wholly frivolous. See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744-45 (requiring the appellate court to conduct a full examination of all proceedings to determine whether it agrees with counsel's determination that any appeal would be wholly frivolous). Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.
