  • Affirmed and Memorandum Opinion filed July 16, 2015.
    In The
    Fourteenth Court of Appeals
    NO. 14-14-00588-CR
    NO. 14-14-00590-CR
    TRYMAINE HOLLINS, Appellant
    V.
    THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
    On Appeal from the 182nd District Court
    Harris County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause Nos. 1366598 and 1366599
    MEMORANDUM                     OPINION
    Appellant appeals his convictions for sexual assault of a child under the age
    of 17. The jury sentenced appellant to confinement for six years in each case. The
    trial court ordered the sentences to run consecutively. Appellant’s appointed
    counsel filed a brief in which he concludes the appeal in each case is wholly
    frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v.
    California, 
    386 U.S. 738
    (1967), by advancing frivolous contentions which might
    arguably support the appeal. See Gainous v. State, 
    436 S.W.2d 137
    (Tex. Crim.
    App. 1969); Jackson v. State, 
    485 S.W.2d 553
    (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Currie v.
    State, 
    516 S.W.2d 684
    (Tex. Crim. App. 1974).
    A copy of counsel’s brief was delivered to appellant. Appellant was advised
    of the right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se response. See Stafford
    v. State, 
    813 S.W.2d 503
    , 512 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). As of this date, no pro se
    response has been filed.
    We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel’s brief in each case and
    agree the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find no
    reversible error in the record in each case. We are not to address the merits of each
    claim raised in an Anders brief or a pro se response when we have determined
    there are no arguable grounds for review. See Bledsoe v. State, 
    178 S.W.3d 824
    ,
    827–28 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
    Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed in each case.
    PER CURIAM
