A jury found Bobby Ray Carter guilty of possession of child pornography. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 43.26(a),(d) (Vernon 2003). The trial court sentenced Carter as an habitual offender to imprisonment for life. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 12.42(d) (Vernon Supp. 2005).

Carter's appellate counsel filed a brief that presents counsel's professional evaluation of the record and concludes the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967); and High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On December 1, 2005, we granted an extension of time for Carter to file a pro se brief. We received no response from the appellant.

We reviewed the appellate record, and agree with counsel's conclusion that no arguable issues support an appeal. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). The judgment is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
