MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-09-00716-CV IN THE MATTER OF C.A.W. From the 386th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2009-JUV-00999 Honorable Laura Parker, Judge Presiding Opinion by: Karen Angelini, Justice Sitting: Karen Angelini, Justice Phylis J. Speedlin, Justice Rebecca Simmons, Justice Delivered and Filed: September 1, 2010 AFFIRMED C.A.W., a juvenile, pled true to an original petition alleging delinquent conduct in a juvenile case and was placed on probation for a period of eighteen months in the custody of the Chief Juvenile Probation Officer of Bexar County for the purpose of placement outside the home. C.A.W. filed a timely notice of appeal. C.A.W. s court-appointed appellate attorney filed a motion to withdraw and a brief in which he asserts there are no meritorious issues to raise on appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); In re D.A.S., 973 S.W.2d 296, 299 (Tex. 1998) (orig. proceeding) (holding that Anders procedure applies to juvenile proceedings). Counsel states he has provided the juvenile and his guardian copies of the 04-09-00716-CV brief and motion to withdraw and informed them of the juvenile s right to review the record and file his own brief. See In re A.L.H., 974 S.W.2d 359, 360-61 (Tex. App. San Antonio 1998, no pet.); 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.). No pro se brief has been filed. 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. Furthermore, we grant the motion to withdraw. See Nichols, 954 S.W.2d at 85-86; Bruns, 924 S.W.2d at 177 n.1. Karen Angelini, Justice -2-
