<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	The county court at law found appellant guilty of assault and assessed punishment
at incarceration for 365 days and a $4000 fine.  Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.01(a)(1) (West 1994).</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief in which he concludes that the
appeal is frivolous and without merit.  The brief meets the requirements of <EM>Anders v. California</EM>,
386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why
there are no arguable grounds to be advanced.  <EM>See also</EM> <EM>Penson v. Ohio</EM>, 488 U.S. 75 (1988);
<EM>Gainous v. State</EM>, 436  S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969); <EM>Jackson v. State</EM>, 485  S.W.2d 553
(Tex. Crim. App. 1972); <EM>Currie v. State</EM>, 516  S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); <EM>High v.
State</EM>, 573  S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).  A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to
appellant, and appellant was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro
se brief.  No pro se brief has been filed.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree that the appeal is
frivolous and without merit.  Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support
the appeal.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	The judgment of conviction is affirmed.</SPAN></P>
