  • Affirmed and Memorandum Opinion filed August 28, 2018.
    In The
    Fourteenth Court of Appeals
    NO. 14-17-00596-CR
    CAROLINA CHAVEZ, Appellant
    V.
    THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
    On Appeal from the 179th District Court
    Harris County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause No. 1517945
    MEMORANDUM                     OPINION
    Appellant Carolina Chavez appeals her conviction for aggravated assault.
    Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 22.02(a)(2) (West 2011). Appellant’s appointed counsel filed
    a brief in which he concludes 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 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 her right to inspect the appellate record and file a pro se response to the brief. 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 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 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 trial court’s judgment is affirmed.
    PER CURIAM
    Panel consists of Justices Donovan, Wise, and Jewell
    Do Not Publish — Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
