From the 218th Judicial District Court, Atascosa County, Texas

Delivered and Filed: December 6, 2006

AFFIRMED

Marilyn Hammonds was charged with possession of less than one gram of cocaine. Hammonds was found guilty of the alleged offense after a jury trial, and she was sentenced to two years imprisonment, probated for five years. We affirm.

Hammonds's court-appointed appellate attorney filed a brief containing a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating that there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. Counsel concludes that the appeal is without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to Hammonds, who was advised of her right to examine the record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed. After reviewing the record, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The judgment of the trial court is therefore affirmed. Furthermore, 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.).

Catherine Stone , Justice
