MARK ANTHONY CHAMBERLAIN,                 FROM A DISTRICT COURT
 
 
        APPELLANT,
 
 
v.
 
 
THE STATE OF TEXAS,
 
 
        APPELLEE.                                           OF GRAYSON COUNTY, TEXAS
 
 
 
BEFORE JUSTICES WHITHAM, THOMAS AND BURNETT
OPINION BY JUSTICE THOMAS
MAY 18, 1989
        Mark Anthony Chamberlain was convicted by a jury of burglary of a building and punishment was assessed at ten years' confinement in the Texas Department of Corrections. Chamberlain's attorney has filed a brief in which he has concluded that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). A copy of counsel's brief has been delivered to Chamberlain and he has been advised that he would be given the opportunity to examine the appellate record. Further, Chamberlain was advised that he had a right to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
        We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel's brief. We agree that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. The trial court's judgment is affirmed.
