This is an appeal
from an order revoking probation.  The
offense is aggravated assault and the punishment is imprisonment for 25 years.  We affirm.

Appellant=s court-appointed counsel has filed a
brief in which she has concluded that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without
merit.  The brief meets the requirements
of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, reh.
denied, 388 U.S. 924, 87 S. Ct. 2094, 18 L. Ed. 2d 1377 (1967), by presenting
a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why, in effect, there are
no arguable grounds to be advanced.  See
High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978); Currie v. State,
516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex.Crim.App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553

(Tex.Crim.App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex.Crim.App.
1969).  A copy of counsel=s brief has been delivered to
Appellant, and Appellant has been advised of his right to examine the appellate
record and file a pro se brief.  No pro
se brief has been filed.  The record
reflects that Appellant entered a plea of Atrue@ to the State=s
motion to revoke and judicially confessed to violating his probation.
We have carefully
reviewed the record and counsel=s
brief and agree that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit.  Further, we find nothing in the record that
might arguably support the appeal.  A
discussion of the contentions advanced in counsel's brief would add nothing to
the jurisprudence of the state.
The judgment is
affirmed.
