    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    No. 04-13-00575-CR
    Sakhorn KHAMSIRY,
    Appellant
    v.
    The
    The STATE of Texas,
    Appellee
    From the 216th Judicial District Court, Kerr County, Texas
    Trial Court No. A08-393
    Honorable N. Keith Williams, Judge Presiding
    Opinion by:       Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
    Sitting:          Catherine Stone, Chief Justice
    Marialyn Barnard, Justice
    Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
    Delivered and Filed: June 4, 2014
    MOTION TO WITHDRAW GRANTED; AFFIRMED
    Sakhorn Khamsiry appeals the judgment convicting him of possession of a controlled
    substance and sentencing him to twenty-five years in prison.          Khamsiry’s court-appointed
    appellate attorney filed a motion to withdraw and a brief in which he concludes this appeal is
    frivolous and without merit.
    The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 
    386 U.S. 738
    (1967), High v.
    State, 
    573 S.W.2d 807
    (Tex. Crim. App. 1978), and Gainous v. State, 
    436 S.W.2d 137
    (Tex. Crim.
    04-13-00575-CR
    App. 1969). Appellant was provided a copy of the brief and motion to withdraw and was informed
    of his right to review the record and file his own brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
    After reviewing the record and counsel’s brief, we find no reversible error and agree with
    counsel the appeal is wholly frivolous. See Bledsoe v. State, 
    178 S.W.3d 824
    , 826-27 (Tex. Crim.
    App. 2005). We therefore grant the motion to withdraw filed by Khamsiry’s counsel and affirm
    the trial court’s judgment. See id.; Nichols v. State, 
    954 S.W.2d 83
    , 86 (Tex. App.—San Antonio
    1997, no pet.); Bruns v. State, 
    924 S.W.2d 176
    , 177 n.1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1996, no pet.). 1

    No substitute counsel will be appointed. Should Khamsiry wish to seek further review of this case by the Texas
    Court of Criminal Appeals, he must either retain an attorney to file a petition for discretionary review or file a pro se
    petition for discretionary review. Any petition for discretionary review must be filed within thirty days after either this
    opinion is rendered or the last timely motion for rehearing or motion for en banc reconsideration is overruled by this
    court. See Tex. R. App. P. 68.2. Any petition for discretionary review must be filed with the clerk of the Court of
    Criminal Appeals. See 
    id. R. 68.3.
    Any petition for discretionary review must comply with the requirements of rule
    68.4 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See 
    id. R. 68.4.
