Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, appellant Ahmad Jamal Acrond pled guilty to assault on a family member. The trial court found the evidence sufficient to find Acrond guilty, but deferred further proceedings, placed Acrond on community supervision for five years, and assessed a fine of $500. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke Acrond's unadjudicated community supervision. Acrond pled "true" to five violations of the conditions of his community supervision. The trial court found that Acrond violated the conditions of his community supervision, found Acrond guilty of assault on a family member, and assessed punishment at ten years of confinement.

Acrond'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); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On April 9 , 2009, we granted an extension of time for appellant to file a pro se brief. We received no response from appellant. We reviewed the appellate record, and we 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). We affirm the trial court's judgment. ⁽¹⁾

AFFIRMED.
