                                  MEMORANDUM OPINION

       This is an appeal from a jury conviction for the offense of assault causes bodily injury family

violence.   TEX .PENAL CODE ANN . § 22.01(a)(1)(Vernon Supp. 2008).             The court assessed

confinement for 150 days. 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 and the appellate record have been delivered to Appellant, and

Appellant has been advised of his right to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.

       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.

          The judgment is affirmed.
