### November 30 , 2017 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before QUINN, C.J., and PIRTLE and PARKER, JJ. On January 4, 2017, appellant, Xavier Rena Solis, entered an open plea of guilty to one count of evading arrest or detention with a motor vehicle, 2 and fo ur counts of

aggravated robbery. 3 Appellant pled “true” to using or exhibiting a dead ly weapon during the commission of the robbery offenses. After hearing evidence, the trial court accepted appellant’s guilty plea, found appellant guilty of each of the charged offenses, and sentenced him to ten years’ incarceration for the evading arrest or detention conviction and thirty - five years’ incarceration for each of the aggravated robbery convictions. Subsequently, appellant timely filed his notice of appeal. We affirm. Appellant’ s court - appointed appellate counsel filed a motion to withdraw f rom the repres entation supported by an Anders brief. See Anders v. California , 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed. 2d 493 (1967)
. In support of his motion to withdraw, counsel certifies that he has diligently reviewed the reco rds and , in his opinion, th e records reflect no reversible error upon which an appeal can be predicated. Id . at 744 ; In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d 403, 406 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008). In compliance with High v. State , 573 S.W.2d 807, 813 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978), counsel has discussed why, under the controlling authorities, there are no reversible errors in the trial court ’ s judgments. C ounsel notified appellant by l etter of his motion to withdraw; provided him a copy of the motion , Anders brief, and appellate record; and informed him of his right to file a pro se response. See Kelly v. State , 436 S.W.3d 313, 319 - 20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014 ) (specifying appointed counsel’ s obligations on the filing of a motion to withdraw supported by an Anders brief). By letter, this C ourt also advised a ppellant of his right to file a pro se response to counsel’s Anders brief
. Appellant did not, however, file a pro se response. The State did not file a brief.

3 See id . § 29.03 (West 2011 ).3

In the present case , a ppellant entered a plea of “ guilty ” to each count alleged in the indictment and a plea of “ true ” concerning the deadly weapon allegations
. By his Anders brief, counsel discusses three areas where reversible error may have occurred but concludes that the appeals are frivolous. We have in dependently examined the record to determine whether there are any non - frivolous issues that were preserved in the trial court which might support these appeals but, like counsel, we have found no such issues. Se e Penson v. Ohio , 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S.Ct. 346, 102 L.Ed. 2d 300 (1988); In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d at 409 ; Gainous v. State , 436 S.W.2d 137, 138 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). After carefully reviewing the appellate record and counsel’ s brief, we conclude there are no plausible grounds for appellate review. We therefore affirm the trial court ’ s judgments and grant counsel ’ s motion to withdraw. 4 See T EX . R. A PP . P. 43.2(a).

4 Even though a ppellant was informed of his right to file a pro se petition for discretionary review up on execution of the Trial Court’ s Certification of Defendant ’ s Right of Appeal, counsel must comply with Rule 48.4 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure , which provides that counsel shall within five days after thi s opinion is handed down, send a ppellant a copy of the opinion and judgments together with notification of his right to file a pro se petition for discretionary review. In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d at 408 n.22 & 411 n.35. Th is duty is an informational one, not a representational one. It is ministerial in nature, does not involve legal advice, and exists after the court of appeals has granted counsel ’ s motion to withdraw. Id
