From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

AFFIRMED

Ernest Sanchez Vera ("Vera") appeals the trial court's judgment revoking his community supervision. At the revocation hearing, Vera pled true to violating certain conditions of his community supervision. Vera's court-appointed attorney filed a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), in which she concludes that the appeal has no merit. Counsel provided Vera with a copy of the brief and informed him of his right to review the record and file his own brief. See Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 85-86 (Tex. App.--San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns v. State, 924 S.W.2d 176, 177 n.1 (Tex. App.--San Antonio 1996, no pet.). On January 6, 2004, this court notified Vera of the deadline to file his pro se brief; however, Vera did not file a brief.

We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. We agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. Appellate counsel's motion to withdraw is granted. Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d at 86; Bruns 924 S.W.2d at 177 n.1.
