On Appeal from the 338th District Court

MEMORANDUM OPINION  

               Appellant, Darrell Dewayne Johnson, was charged by indictment with the felony offense of robbery that was enhanced with a prior felony conviction. Appellant pleaded guilty to the indictment and pleaded true to the enhancement paragraph and in accordance with his plea bargain agreement the trial court assessed punishment at confinement for 20 years. We affirm.

               Appellant’s court-appointed counsel filed a brief concluding that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 1400 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds of error to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Moore v. State, 845 S.W.2d 352, 353 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1992, pet. ref’d).

               The brief states that a copy was delivered to appellant, whom counsel advised by letter of his right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se brief. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). More than 30 days have passed, and appellant has not filed a pro se brief. We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel’s brief. We find no reversible error in the record, and agree that the appeal is wholly frivolous.

               We affirm the judgment of the trial court.

               Any pending motions are denied as moot.

                                                     PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Taft, Higley, and Bland.
