          FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF HAYS COUNTY, 22ND JUDICIAL DISTRICT
            NO. CR-01-270, HONORABLE CHARLES R. RAMSAY, JUDGE PRESIDING



                               MEMORANDUM OPINION


                A jury found appellant Paul Anthony Delarosa guilty of capital murder. See Tex. Pen. Code

Ann. ' 19.04 (West Supp. 2004). The court imposed the mandatory life sentence.

                Delarosa=s court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is frivolous and

without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by

presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be

advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim.

App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d

553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). A copy of

counsel=s brief was delivered to Delarosa, who was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and

to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
                 We have reviewed the record and counsel=s brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous and

without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. Counsel=s motion to

withdraw is granted.

                 The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
