MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-09-00660-CV IN THE INTEREST OF E.M.L.T.C.R., CHILD From the 288th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2008-PA-02451 Honorable Charles E. Montemayor, Judge presiding Opinion by: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice Rebecca Simmons, Justice Marialyn Barnard, Justice Delivered and Filed: August 18, 2010 AFFIRMED This is an appeal from the trial court s termination of appellant s parental rights. The record on appeal contains a copy of the reporter s record from the termination hearing. Appellant s court-appointed attorney filed a brief in which counsel concludes the trial court did not err in ruling that appellant s points of appeal are frivolous. The 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.) (applying Anders procedure in appeal from termination of parental rights). Counsel provided appellant with a copy of the brief. Appellant was informed of her right to review the record and advised of her right to file a pro se 04-09-00660-CV brief. Appellant filed a brief in which she states she sees no reason her child could not live with the grandparents while appellant continues to become more stable for her child. After reviewing the record of the termination hearing, counsel s brief, and appellant s pro se brief, we agree the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed. We GRANT counsel s motion to withdraw. Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 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.).
