    JARMAL DEON SPEED, Appellant
    V.
    THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
    On Appeal from the 283rd Judicial District Court
    Dallas County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause Nos. F13-62359-T, F14-45065-T
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    Before Justices Bridges, Lang, and Schenck
    Opinion by Justice Lang
    Jarmal Deon Speed pleaded guilty to a jury for two aggravated robbery with a deadly
    weapon offenses. The jury found appellant guilty and assessed punishment at thirty years’
    imprisonment in each case. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 29.03(a)(2) (West 2011). On appeal,
    appellant’s attorney filed a brief in which she concludes the appeals are wholly frivolous and
    without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 
    386 U.S. 738
    (1967).
    The brief presents a professional evaluation of the record showing why, in effect, there are no
    arguable grounds to advance. See High v. State, 
    573 S.W.2d 807
    , 811–12 (Tex. Crim. App.
    [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to appellant. We advised appellant of
    his right to file a pro se response, but he did not file a pro se response. See Kelly v. State, 
    436 S.W.3d 313
    , 319–21 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (identifying duties of appellate courts and counsel
    in Anders cases).
    We have reviewed the record and counsel’s brief. See Bledsoe v. State, 
    178 S.W.3d 824
    ,
    826–27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (explaining appellate court’s duty in Anders cases). We agree
    the appeals are frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably
    support the appeals.
    We affirm the trial court’s judgments.
