Martinez, Justice Delivered and Filed: October 22, 2014 AFFIRMED This is an appeal from the trial court s order terminating appellant s parental rights to C.D. Appellant s court-appointed attorney filed a brief containing a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating that there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. Counsel concludes 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.

(mem. op.). Counsel certified that a copy of the brief was delivered to appellant who was advised of his right to review the record and to file a pro se brief. Appellate counsel provided appellant 04-14-00349-CV with a form motion for requesting the record. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319-20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014). Appellant has not requested the record or filed a brief. After reviewing the record and counsel s brief, we agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The trial court s order is affirmed, and counsel s motion to withdraw is granted. Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 86 (Tex. App. San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns v.
