ORDER Appellant’s court-appointed attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 368 U.S. 738 (1967) and a motion to withdraw; however, the motion to withdraw is not accompanied by: (1) an exhibit showing that counsel has notified appellant of the motion to withdraw and the accompanying Anders brief and provided appellant with a copy of each; (2) an exhibit showing that counsel has informed appellant of appellant’s right to seek discretionary review should the court of appeals declare appellant’s appeal frivolous; and (3) an exhibit showing that counsel has notified appellant that, should appellant wish to exercise the right to review the appellate record in preparing to file a response to the Anders brief, appellant should immediately file a motion for pro se access to the appellate record with this court and provided appellant with a form motion for this purpose and a mailing address for this court.

See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319–20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014); Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 85–86 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997, no pet.); see also In re P.M., 520 S.W.3d 24, n.10 (Tex. 2016) (per curiam) (recognizing that Anders procedures apply in parental termination cases).

It is therefore ORDERED that appellant’s attorney file an amended motion to withdraw with the requisite exhibit in this court no later than January 7, 2022. _________________________________ Rebeca C. Martinez, Chief Justice
