TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

                                      NO. 03-05-00308-CR

                               Terry James Anderson, Appellant

                                                 v.

                                  The State of Texas, Appellee

        FROM THE COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 3 OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY
       NO. 04-3721-3, HONORABLE DONALD HIGGINBOTHAM, JUDGE PRESIDING

                            MEMORANDUM OPINION

               A jury found appellant Terry James Anderson guilty of driving while intoxicated. See

Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 49.04 (West 2003). The court assessed at 100-day jail term.

               Appellant’s court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is

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 demonstrating why there are no

arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); 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). Appellant received a copy of counsel’s brief and was advised of his right to

examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
              We have reviewed the record and counsel’s brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous

and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal.

              The judgment of conviction is affirmed.

                                             __________________________________________
