STEVEN LEWIS BEDWELL, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 23rd District Court

Brazoria County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 39,741

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

After a guilty plea, appellant was convicted of driving while intoxicated and placed on community supervision for ten years.  On February 25, 2005, the State filed its amended motion to revoke appellant=s probation.  After hearing evidence, the trial court found two of the allegations in the motion true. On March 23, 2005, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for ten years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.^[1]  Appellant filed a written notice of appeal. 

Appellant=s appointed counsel filed a brief in which he concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396 (1967), presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced.  See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).

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.  More than sixty days have elapsed, and to date, no motion to review the record or pro se response has been filed. 

We agree the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit.  Further, we find no reversible error in the record.  A discussion of the brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the State.

Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
