KENNETH EUGENE HARRIS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee



On Appeal from the 339th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1035080



MEMORANDUM OPINION
	A jury found appellant, Kenneth Eugene Harris, guilty of the offense of failure
to stop and render aid (1) and assessed his punishment at confinement for five years.
	Appellant's counsel on appeal has filed a brief stating that the record presents
no reversible error and that the appeal is without merit and is frivolous.  See Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 1400 (1967).  The brief meets the
requirements of Anders by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and
detailing why there are no arguable grounds for reversal.  Id.; see also High v. State,
573 S.W.2d 807, 810 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978).  The brief also reflects that
counsel delivered a copy of the brief to appellant and advised appellant of his right
to file a pro se response.  See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex. Crim. App.
1991).  More than thirty days have passed, and appellant has not filed a pro se
response.
	Having reviewed the record and counsel's brief, we agree that the appeal is
frivolous and without merit and that there is no reversible error.  See Bledsoe v. State,
178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).  
	We affirm the judgment of the trial court.  We grant counsel's motion to
withdraw. (2) See Stephens v. State, 35 S.W.3d 770, 771-72 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st
Dist.] 2000, no pet.) (per curiam).

Appeals.  See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005); Downs
v. State, 137 S.W.3d 837, 842 n.2 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 2004, pet. ref'd).
