Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-13-00622-CV IN THE INTEREST OF S.C., a Child From the 407th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2012-PA-00414 Honorable Richard Garcia, Judge Presiding Opinion by: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Delivered and Filed: February 26, 2014 AFFIRMED This is an appeal from the trial court s order terminating appellant s parental rights to S.C. Appellant 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 frivolous and 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. App. San Antonio May 21, 2003, no pet.) (applying Anders procedure in appeal from termination of parental rights) (mem. op.); see also In re K.M., 98 S.W.3d 774, 775 (Tex. App. Fort Worth 2003, order) (same). 04-13-00622-CV Counsel certified that a copy of the brief was delivered to appellant 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 order of the trial court is therefore affirmed, and counsel s motion to withdraw is granted. Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice -2-
