DEVON WOODARD, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 184th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause Nos. 1004169 and 1004158

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, Devon Woodard, pleaded guilty to two separate felony offenses of aggravated robbery, and the trial court assessed punishment in each case at confinement for 25 years. We affirm.

Appellant s court-appointed counsel filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and a brief concluding that this appeal is without merit. Counsel s brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 1400 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record that demonstrates the lack of arguable grounds of error. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Moore v. State, 845 S.W.2d 352, 353 (Tex. App. Houston [1st Dist.] 1992, pet. ref d).

Counsel represents that he served a copy of the brief on appellant. Counsel also advised appellant of his right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se brief. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). More than 30 days have passed, and appellant has not filed a pro se brief. We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel s brief. We find no reversible error in the record, and agree that the appeal is without merit. We therefore affirm the judgment of the trial court.

We grant counsel s motion to withdraw. // See Stephens v. State, 35 S.W.3d 770, 771 (Tex. App. Houston [1st Dist.] 2000, no pet.).

Any pending motions are dismissed as moot.
