LONNEY ROBERTO ANTONIO BROWN                                 APPELLANT
A/K/A LONNEY R. BROWN
 
                                                 V.
 
THE STATE OF TEXAS                                                             STATE
 
                                            ------------
 
         FROM THE 372ND
DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY
 
                                            ------------
 
                              MEMORANDUM OPINION[1]
 
                                            ------------
After pleading true to having violated the terms
and conditions of his deferred adjudication community supervision, appellant
Lonney Roberto Antonio Brown a/k/a Lonney R. Brown appeals his conviction and
ten-year-and-one-day sentence for burglary of a habitation.  We affirm.




Appellant=s
court-appointed appellate counsel has filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and
a brief in support of that motion.  In
the brief, counsel avers that, in his professional opinion, the appeal is
frivolous.  Counsel=s brief
and motion meet the requirements of Anders v. California[2]
by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there
are no arguable grounds for relief.  We
gave appellant the opportunity to file a pro se brief, and he has not filed
one.  The State also has not filed a
brief.
Once an appellant=s
court-appointed attorney files a motion to withdraw on the ground that the
appeal is frivolous and fulfills the requirements of Anders, this court
is obligated to undertake an independent examination of the record.[3]  Only then may we grant counsel=s motion
to withdraw.[4]




We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel=s
brief.  We agree with counsel that this
appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit; we find nothing in the record
that might arguably support the appeal.[5]  Accordingly, we grant counsel=s motion
to withdraw and affirm the trial court=s
judgment.
