THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 3 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F11-63009-J MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices LangMiers, Myers, and Lewis Opinion by Justice LangMiers Michelle Petrice Abram waived a jury, pleaded guilty to theft of property from an elderly person, and pleaded true to one enhancement paragraph. See TEx, PENAL CoDE ANN. § 31.03(a), (f)(3)(A) (West Supp. 2012). After finding appellant guilty, the trial court assessed punishment at ten years imprisonment. On appeal, appellant s attorney filed a brief in which she concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. CaliJrnia, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). The brief presents a professional evaluation of the record showing why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to advance. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807. 811 (Tex. Crini. App. I Panel Op. l978). Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to appellant. We advised appellant of her right to file a pro se response, but she did not file a pro se response. We have reviewed the record and counsel s brief. See IIkdsne i Slate. 178 S.W.3d 824. 827 (Tex. Crim. App. 2(X)5) (explaining appellate court s duty in Anclers eases). We agree the appeal is frivolous and without merit We tind nothing in the record that might arguably support theappeal. We affirm the trial court s judgment d![%q)yati.
