                      FOR THE SEVENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                         THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE
                       _________________________________

              FROM THE 242ND DISTRICT COURT OF HALE COUNTY;

                  NO. B17197-0704; HONORABLE ED SELF, JUDGE
                       _______________________________

Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.

                               MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Appellant, Corrine Fraide, pleaded guilty to the offense of driving while intoxicated

with a child under the age of 15 years and was assessed a term of confinement in the

State Jail Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for one year and a fine of

$1,000 with the state jail time being probated. Appellant was placed on community

supervision for two years. Subsequently, the State filed a motion to revoke community

supervision alleging a number of violations of the appellant’s terms and conditions of

probation. Appellant pleaded “Not True” to the allegations contained in the State’s motion
to revoke community supervision. After hearing the evidence, the trial court found that

appellant had violated the terms and conditions of her community supervision and revoked

her probation and sentenced her to serve the original term of one year in a state jail facility.

This appeal followed. We affirm.

       Appellant’s attorney has filed an Anders brief and a motion to withdraw. Anders v.

California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 498 (1967). In support of his motion

to withdraw, counsel certifies that he has diligently reviewed the record, and in his opinion,

the record reflects no reversible error upon which an appeal can be predicated. Id. at 744-

45. In compliance with High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 813 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978), counsel

has candidly discussed why, under the controlling authorities, there is no error in the trial

court’s judgment. Additionally, counsel has certified that he has provided appellant a copy

of the Anders brief and motion to withdraw and appropriately advised appellant of his right

to file a pro se response in this matter.          Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510

(Tex.Crim.App. 1991). The court has also advised appellant of his right to file a pro se

response. Appellant has not filed a response.

       By his Anders brief, counsel raises grounds that could possibly support an appeal,

but concludes the appeal is frivolous. We have reviewed these grounds and made an

independent review of the entire record to determine whether there are any arguable

grounds which might support an appeal. See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 109 S. Ct. 346,

102 L. Ed. 2d 300 (1988); Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824 (Tex.Crim.App. 2005). We

have found no such arguable grounds and agree with counsel that the appeal is frivolous.

                                               2
       Accordingly, counsel’s motion to withdraw is hereby granted and the trial court’s

judgment is affirmed.1

         Counsel shall, within five days after this opinion is handed down, send his client
a copy of the opinion and judgment, along with notification of appellant’s right to file a pro
se petition for discretionary review. See TEX . R. APP. P. 48.4.
