    TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN






    NO. 03-98-00498-CR


    Lester Dion Ross, Appellant


    v.



    The State of Texas, Appellee






    FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 167TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

    NO. 0974864, HONORABLE TOM BLACKWELL, JUDGE PRESIDING


    PER CURIAM

    A jury found appellant guilty of aggravated robbery. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 29.03 (West 1994). The district court assessed punishment at imprisonment for life.

    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 appellant
    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.
