Fourteenth Court of
Appeals

NO. 14-08-00774-CR

STEVE ANTHONY HANKS, Appellant
 
V.
 
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
 

 
On Appeal from the 122nd District
Court
Galveston County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 06CR1578
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N
Appellant
entered a guilty plea to the offense of Failure to Register as a Sex Offender. 
Further, appellant entered a plea of true to an enhancement paragraph
increasing the range of punishment to that of a second degree felony.  On July
3, 2008, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for twenty years in
the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. 
Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal.




Appellant=s appointed counsel filed a brief in
which he concludes this appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit.  The
brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87
S.Ct. 1396 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and
demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced.  See High v.
State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811-12 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).
A copy
of counsel=s brief was delivered to appellant.  Appellant was advised of the right
to examine the appellate record and file a pro se response.  See Stafford v.
State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991).  As of this date, more
than sixty days has elapsed and no pro se response has been filed.
We have
carefully reviewed the record and counsel=s brief and agree the appeal is
wholly frivolous and without merit.  Further, we find no reversible error in
the record.  A discussion of the brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence
of the state.  We are not to address the merits of each claim raised in an Anders
brief or a pro se response when we have determined there are no arguable
grounds for review.  See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827-28 (Tex.
Crim. App. 2005).
Accordingly,
the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
