                        JOHNNY FREDRICK HENRY, JR., Appellant

                                                             V.

                                      STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                                    On Appeal from the 29th District Court

                                                         Palo Pinto County, Texas

                                                      Trial Court Cause No. 14382

M E M O R A N D U M    O P I N I O N

            The jury convicted Johnny Fredrick Henry a/k/a Johnny Fredrick Henry, Jr. of robbery.  Upon appellant’s plea of “true” to two felonies alleged for enhancement purposes, the jury sentenced appellant to confinement in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for a term of fifty years.  We dismiss the appeal.

Appellant’s court-appointed counsel has filed a motion to withdraw.  The motion is supported by a brief in which counsel professionally and conscientiously examines the record and applicable law and states that he has concluded that the appeal is frivolous.  Counsel has provided appellant with a copy of the brief and advised appellant of his right to review the record and file a response to counsel’s brief.  A response has not been filed.[1]  Court-appointed counsel has complied with the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d 403 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008); Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969); and Eaden v. State, 161 S.W.3d 173 (Tex. App.—Eastland 2005, no pet.).

Following the procedures outlined in Anders and Schulman, we have independently reviewed the record, and we agree that the appeal is without merit and should be dismissed.  Schulman, 252 S.W.3d at 409.  In this regard, we note that appellant essentially admitted at trial to the conduct with which he was charged. 

We note that counsel has the responsibility to advise appellant that he may file a petition for discretionary review with the clerk of this court seeking review by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals.  Tex. R. App. P. 48.4 (“In criminal cases, the attorney representing the defendant on appeal shall, within five days after the opinion is handed down, send his client a copy of the opinion and judgment, along with notification of the defendant’s right to file a pro se petition for discretionary review under Rule 68.”).  Likewise, this court advises appellant that he may file a petition for discretionary review pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 68. 

The motion to withdraw is granted, and the appeal is dismissed.
