Speedlin, Justice Delivered and Filed: July 15, 2009 AFFIRMED Defendant, Cirildo Fitchett, pled guilty to possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, without a plea bargain. The trial court assessed punishment at ten years confinement. Defendant 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). Defendant was informed of his right to review the record. Counsel 04-08-00789-CR provided defendant with a copy of the brief and advised him of his right to file a pro se brief. Defendant did not file a pro se brief. After reviewing the record and counsel s brief, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. Accordingly, we affirm the trial court s judgment, and we GRANT appellate counsel s motion to withdraw.1 Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 86 (Tex. App. San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns v.
