Hilbig, Justice Marialyn Barnard, Justice Delivered and Filed: October 31, 2012 AFFIRMED Appellant appeals the trial court s order terminating his parental rights to J.M.V. Appellant s court-appointed attorney has 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). See In re R.R., No. 04 03 00096 CV, 2003 WL 21157944, at * 4 (Tex.
