APPELLANT

THE STATE OF TEXAS,
APPELLEE                                        §      SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS

                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                     PER CURIAM
       Gregory Carl Rolling, Jr. appeals his conviction for possession of a controlled substance
in a drug free zone. Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967) and Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137
(Tex. Crim. App. 1969). We affirm.


                                          BACKGROUND
       Appellant pleaded guilty to possession of a controlled substance in a drug free zone, and
the trial court placed Appellant on deferred adjudication community supervision. The State later
filed an application to proceed to final adjudication on grounds that Appellant violated certain
conditions of his community supervision.       Appellant pleaded “true” to violating several
community supervision conditions. The trial court revoked Appellant’s community supervision,
found Appellant guilty of possession of a controlled substance in a drug free zone, and sentenced
Appellant to six years of imprisonment.


                       ANALYSIS PURSUANT TO ANDERS V. CALIFORNIA
       Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders and Gainous. Appellant’s
counsel states that he has reviewed the record and concluded that it reflects no jurisdictional
defects or reversible error. In compliance with Anders, Gainous, and High v. State, 573 S.W.2d
807 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978), Appellant’s brief presents a chronological procedural
history of the case and a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no
arguable issues for appeal.1 See Anders, 386 U.S. at 745, 87 S. Ct. at 1400; Gainous, 436
S.W.2d at 138; see also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S. Ct. 346, 350, 102 L. Ed. 2d 300
(1988). We have conducted an independent review of the record and have found no reversible
error. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). Accordingly, we
conclude the appeal is wholly frivolous.


                                                  CONCLUSION
         As required by Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991), Appellant’s
counsel has moved for leave to withdraw. See also In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d 403, 407 (Tex.
Crim. App. 2008) (orig. proceeding). Having found that this appeal is wholly frivolous, we
grant counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw and affirm the trial court’s judgment.
         Appellant’s counsel has a duty to, within five days of the date of this opinion, send a
copy of the opinion and judgment to Appellant and advise him of his right to file a petition for
discretionary review. See TEX. R. APP. P. 48.4; In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d at 411 n.35.
Should Appellant wish to seek review of this case by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, he
must either retain an attorney to file a petition for discretionary review on his behalf or file a
petition for discretionary review pro se. Any petition for discretionary review must be filed with
Texas Court of Criminal Appeals within thirty days from the date of either this opinion or the
last timely motion for rehearing that was overruled by this Court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 68.2;
68.3(a). Any petition for discretionary review should comply with the requirements of Texas
Rule of Appellate Procedure 68.4. See In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d at 408 n.22.

         1
          Appellant’s counsel states that he provided Appellant with a copy of the Anders brief. Appellant was
given time to file his own brief in this cause. The time for filing such a brief has expired and we have received no
pro se brief.

of the court below be in all things affirmed, and that this decision be certified to the court
below for observance.
