Affirmed and Memorandum Opinion filed February 21, 2019.

                                      In The

                     Fourteenth Court of Appeals

                               NO. 14-18-00313-CR

                ROSHONDA LATRICE HOWARD, Appellant

                                         V.
                       THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 405th District Court
                           Galveston County, Texas
                       Trial Court Cause No. 13CR2597

                 MEMORANDUM                      OPINION

      Appellant appeals her conviction for murder. Appellant’s appointed counsel
filed a brief in which he concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit.
The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by
presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating why there are
no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811–13
(Tex. Crim. App. 1978).
      A copy of counsel’s brief was delivered to appellant. Appellant was advised
of the right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se response. See Stafford
v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 512 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). As of this date, more than 60
days have passed and no pro se response has been filed.

      We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel’s brief and agree the
appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find no reversible error in
the record. We are not to address the merits of each claim raised in an Anders brief
or a pro se response when we have determined there are no arguable grounds for
review. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827–28 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).

      Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.

                                       PER CURIAM
