      COURT-APPOINTED COUNSEL’S MOTION TO WITHDRAW

TO THE COURT OF APPEALS:

       Cheri Duncan, Assistant Public Defender in the Harris County Public

Defender’s Office, moves to withdraw as court-appointed attorney of record for the

Appellant, VINCENT EDWARD BROUSSARD, in this case.

                                             I.

       Counsel is filing, simultaneously with this motion, a Brief for Appellant, in

which she argues that there are no non-frivolous issues to be raised in Appellant’s

appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967).

       For the reasons described in the brief, counsel moves that she be allowed to

withdraw from representing Appellant further in this appeal. If this Court grants her

motion, counsel will attempt to inform the Appellant of the result of his appeal and

will also attempt to inform the Appellant that he may, on his own, pursue

discretionary review in the Court of Criminal Appeals. See Ex parte Wilson, 956 S.W.2d
25, 27 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997).

                                          II.

      Counsel will send Appellant the trial court record, and requests the Court to

grant Appellant additional time to file a pro se brief in addition to the brief that

counsel is filing with this motion. Counsel will deliver to Appellant, by Certified Mail

– RRR, a copy of this motion, as well as a copy of the Brief for Appellant brief and a

copy of the entire appellate record.

                                       PRAYER

      For these reasons, counsel moves that she be allowed to withdraw as court-

appointed attorney of       record for the Appellant, VINCENT EDWARD

BROUSSARD.

                                                Respectfully submitted,
