  •       TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
    NO. 03-04-00232-CR
    Edwin Sanchez, Appellant
    v.
    The State of Texas, Appellee
    FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 27TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
    NO. 55,795, HONORABLE GORDON G. ADAMS, JUDGE PRESIDING
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    A jury found appellant Edwin Sanchez guilty of evading arrest in a motor vehicle and
    assessed his punishment at two years in state jail and a $4000 fine. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 38.04
    (West 2003). Appellant’s court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is
    frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 
    386 U.S. 738
    (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no
    arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 
    488 U.S. 75
    (1988); High v. State, 
    573 S.W.2d 807
    (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 
    516 S.W.2d 684
    (Tex. Crim. App. 1974);
    Jackson v. State, 
    485 S.W.2d 553
    (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 
    436 S.W.2d 137
    (Tex.
    Crim. App. 1969). A copy of counsel’s brief was delivered to appellant, and he was advised of his
    right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
    We have reviewed the record and counsel’s brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous
    and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal.
    The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
