THE STATE OF TEXAS , Appellee

On Appeal from the 8th District Court Hopkins County, Texas Trial Court No. 2027628

Before Stevens , C.J., van Cleef and Rambin , JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Stevens2 

### ME MORANDUM OPINION

T immy Dean Scott pled guilty to possession of four grams or more but less than 200 grams of methamphetamine. See T EX

. H EALTH & S A FETY C ODE A NN

. § 481.115(d) (Supp.)

. After he pled true to the State’s habitual

- offender allegations, the trial court placed Scott on deferred adjudication community supervision for a period of ten years. The terms and conditions
of Scott’s deferred ad

ju dic ation commu nity supervision require d him to go to a Substance Abuse Felony Punishment (SAFP) f acility and abstain from taking drugs , among other things. T he
State moved to revoke Scott ’s community supervision and to proceed to an adj udica tion of his

g uilt because , a mong other violations, Scott tested positive for methamphetamine and failed to abide by the rules and regulations of the SAFP program. Scott p led true to all of th e State’s allegations in its motion to adjudicate guilt , a nd after an evid en tiary hearing, t he trial court granted the State’s motion. Scott was sentenced to life imprisonment , and he appeals.
Scott ’ s attorney filed a brief stat ing that he reviewed the record and found no genuinely arguable issues t hat could be rais ed on appeal

. The brief sets out the procedural history of the

case and summarizes the evidence elicited during the trial court proceeding s
. Since counsel provided a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating w hy there a re no a rg uable grounds to be advanced , that evaluation m eet s the requirements of Anders v. California

. Anders v. California , 386 U.S. 738, 743

– 44 (1967); In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d 403, 406 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008) (orig. proceeding); Stafford v. State , 813 S.W.2d 5 03, 509

– 10 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991); High v. Sta te , 573 S.W.2d 807, 812

– 13 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel
also fi led a motion with this Court seeking to withdraw as counsel in this appeal.3

On July 6, 2023 , counsel mailed to Scott cop ies of th e brief , the motion to w ithdraw , and
a motion for pro se access to the appellate record

. Scott was informed of his right s to review the record and file a pro se response

. After receiving the record, Scott filed his pro se response

. W e have det ermined t hat this appeal is wholly frivolous. We have independently reviewed the entire appellate record and Scott’s pro se response and, like counsel, have determined that no arguable issue supports an appeal. See Bledsoe v. State , 178 S.W.3d 824,
826

– 27 (Tex

. Crim. App. 2005). In the Anders context, once we determine that the appeal is without merit, we must affirm the trial court’ s judgment. Id. We affirm the judgment of the trial court. 1
