AFFIRMED; MOTION TO WITHDRAW GRANTED

           John Henry Scott appeals the trial court’s judgment revoking his community supervision.

In September 2017, Scott entered into a plea-bargain agreement and pled guilty to the offense of

violating sex offender registration requirements. The trial court sentenced Scott to two years in

prison, suspended the sentence, and placed Scott on community supervision for two years. The

State subsequently moved to revoke Scott’s community supervision, alleging Scott had violated

eight conditions of his community supervision. On May 13, 2019, the trial court held a hearing on

the State’s first amended motion to revoke. Scott pled true to five of the eight violations alleged in
                                                                                                         04-19-00372-CR

the amended motion to revoke. The trial court then revoked Scott’s community supervision and

ordered him to serve his two-year prison term.

         On appeal, Scott’s court-appointed appellate counsel filed a brief stating that he has

conducted a professional evaluation of the record and has determined there are no potentially

meritorious grounds to be advanced on Scott’s behalf. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744

(1967). In his brief, counsel refers us to parts of the record that might arguably support the appeal,

but then explains why the appeal is without merit. Counsel’s brief contains citations to the record

and applicable law and includes legal analysis. We conclude counsel’s brief meets the

requirements of Anders. See id.; Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 509-10, 510 n.3 (Tex. Crim.

App. 1991); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 812-13 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).

         Counsel provided Scott with copies of his brief and his motion to withdraw and informed

Scott of his right to review the record and file a pro se brief. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313,

319-20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014). Counsel informed Scott to file a motion in this court if he wished

to review the appellate record and provided Scott with a form motion for this purpose. See id.;

Nichols v. State, 954 S.W.2d 83, 85-86 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1997, no pet.); Bruns v. State,

924 S.W.2d 176, 177 n.1 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 1996, no pet.). We set a deadline for Scott to

file a pro se brief and notified Scott of the deadline. No pro se brief was filed.

         After conducting an independent review of the record, we conclude this appeal is frivolous

and without merit. Accordingly, we affirm the trial court’s judgment and grant counsel’s motion

to withdraw. 1 See Nichols, 954 S.W.2d at 86; Bruns, 924 S.W.2d at 177 n.1.

the date of this opinion; or (2) the date the last timely motion for rehearing is overruled by this court. See TEX. R. APP.
