  • IN THE COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT OF TEXAS,


    AT AUSTIN










    NO. 3-91-107-CR






    SHARON OCKLETREE-ADAMS,


    APPELLANT



    vs.






    THE STATE OF TEXAS,


    APPELLEE





    FROM THE COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 2 OF BELL COUNTY,


    NO. 2C90-92,775, HONORABLE JOHN BARINA, JUDGE







    PER CURIAM

    The trial court found appellant guilty of assault. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 22.01 (1989 & Supp. 1991). The court assessed punishment at incarceration for ninety days and a $750 fine, probated.

    Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief in which he concludes that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by advancing a contention which counsel says might arguably support the appeal. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Cr. App. 1969); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Cr. App. 1972); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Cr. App. 1974); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Cr. App. 1978). A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to appellant, and appellant was advised of her right to examine the appellate record and 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 frivolous and without merit. A discussion of the contention advanced in counsel's brief would serve no beneficial purpose.

    The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
