AND KE.D., CHILDREN On Appeal from the 304th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. JD-14-783-W MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Lang-Miers, Brown, and Schenck Opinion by Justice Lang-Miers Mother appeals the trial court's order terminating her parental rights to her two children. 1 Mother's appointed counsel filed an Anders brief on Mother's behalf asserting that there are no arguable grounds for reversal and the appeal is frivolous and without merit. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); In re D.D., 279 S.W.3d 849, 849-50 (Tex. App.-Dallas 2009, pet. denied) (procedures set forth in Anders are applicable to appeal from order terminating parental rights).

When an Anders brief is filed, our duty is to determine whether there are any arguable grounds for reversal and, if so, to remand the case to the trial court for the appointment of new counsel to address the issues. See In re D.D., 279 S.W.3d at 850 (citing Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005)). The Anders brief filed by Mother's appellate counsel

Counsel conducted a thorough review of the record and analysis of the legal and factual sufficiency of the evidence related to the grounds for termination and the best interest of the children. Counsel concluded that, after diligently reviewing the record and the law, there was no reversible error about which to argue on appeal and the appeal is frivolous and without merit.

Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to Mother and notified Mother of her right to file a pro se response. Mother did not respond or file a pro se response.

We have reviewed the entire record and the Anders brief. See In re D.D., 279 S.W.3d at 850. We agree there is no reversible error in the record and the appeal is frivolous and without merit. Accordingly, we affirm the trial court's final order terminating Mother's parental rights to her two children and grant counsel's motion to withdraw. See id.
