JAMAINE IDEHEN, Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 228th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1033088




MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant, Jamaine Idehen, pleaded guilty, without an agreed recommendation with the State as to punishment, to the felony offense of aggravated robbery. After a pre-sentence investigation hearing, the trial court assessed punishment at confinement for 12 years. We affirm.

Appellant's court-appointed counsel filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and a brief concluding that this appeal is without merit. Counsel's 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 that demonstrates the lack of arguable grounds of error. 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).

Counsel represents that she served a copy of the brief on appellant. Counsel also advised appellant 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 without merit.

We therefore affirm the judgment of the trial court.

We grant counsel's motion to withdraw. (1) See Stephens v. State, 35 S.W.3d 770, 771 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 2000, no pet.).

We deny any pending motions as moot.
