TO THE HONORABLE JUDGES OF SAID COURT:
        Now comes James Huggler, Counsel for the Appellant, in the above styled and
numbered causes, and would show the Court as follows:


                         I. Factual and Procedural Background
        Brandon Medford was appointed counsel for purposes of this appeal. Appellate
counsel has reviewed the record and filed a Brief in compliance with Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967). Counsel has also filed
a Motion to Withdraw.


                                        II. Grounds
        In order to file a pro se brief in this case, it is necessary to review the record.
Counsel has explained the rights the ability to pursue his own appeal. Appellant
desires to submit his own appeal. However, having been appointed appellate counsel,
the trial court has found Brandon Medford indigent. The Court of Criminal Appeals
has stated that appellate counsel has a duty is an Anders brief is filed, to file a motion
to withdraw as well as a motion to allow the appellant access to the record in the case.
Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319·20.(Tex. Crim. App. 2014).
