THE STATE OF TEXAS,       Appellee.
___________________________________________________________________

On appeal from the 107th District Court of Cameron County, Texas.

O P I N I O N
Before Justices Hinojosa, Yañez, and Castillo
Opinion by Justice Yañez

Appellant pleaded guilty, without a plea agreement, to a charge of theft of property valued $1,500 or more, but less than
$20,000. (1)  The trial court found appellant guilty and assessed punishment at two years confinement in the Texas
Department of Criminal Justice, State Jail Division.
Appellant's court-appointed attorney has filed a brief in which he has concluded that the appeal is wholly frivolous and
without merit.  Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, (1967).  The brief states that appellant was served with a copy of the
brief; however, it was unclear if appellant had been informed of her right to respond.  Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503,
511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991).  We abated this appeal to permit counsel to inform appellant of her right to file a response to
counsel's Anders brief with this Court.  We have received and filed a copy of the letter sent to appellant by counsel
notifying her of this right.  
Appellant has had thirty days to file a response to this Court, but has not filed a brief or a response with this Court.  As
required by Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, (1988), we have conducted a full examination of all the proceedings in appellant's
case and we conclude that this appeal is wholly frivolous.
In accordance with Anders, appellant's attorney has asked permission to withdraw as counsel for appellant.  See Anders,
386 U.S. at 744.  We grant the attorney's motion to withdraw.  We order appellant's attorney to notify appellant of the
disposition of this appeal and of the availability of discretionary review.  See Ex parte Wilson, 956 S.W.2d 25, 27 (Tex.
Crim. App. 1997).
We AFFIRM the judgment of the trial court.
