*1 Court of Appeals
Tenth Appellate District of Texas 10-24-00154-CR Crystal Keimoni Daniel, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee On appeal from the 278th District Court of Walker County, Texas Judge Hal R. Ridley, presiding Trial Court Cause No. 31355 J USTICE H ARRIS delivered the opinion of the Court. MEMORANDUM OPINION
Crystal Keimoni Daniel was convicted of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, see T EX . P ENAL C ODE § 22.02(a)(2), and sentenced to 15 years in prison. We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
Daniel’s appointed counsel filed a motion to withdraw and an Anders brief in support of the motion asserting that he has diligently reviewed the appellate record and that, in his opinion, the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. *2 California , 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967). Counsel's brief evidences a professional evaluation of the record for error and compliance with the other duties of appointed counsel. We conclude that counsel has performed the duties required of appointed counsel. See Anders , 386 U.S. at 744; High v. State , 573 S.W.2d 807, 812 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); see also Kelly v. State , 436 S.W.3d 313, 319-320 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014); In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d 403, 407 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008).
In reviewing an Anders appeal, we must, "after a full examination of all the proceedings, ... decide whether the case is wholly frivolous." Anders , 386 U.S. at 744; see Penson v. Ohio , 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S. Ct. 346, 102 L. Ed. 2d 300 (1988); accord Stafford v. State , 813 S.W.2d 503, 509-11 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). An appeal is "wholly frivolous" or "without merit" when it "lacks any basis in law or fact." McCoy v. Court of Appeals , 486 U.S. 429, 439 n. 10, 108 S. Ct. 1895, 100 L. Ed. 2d 440 (1988). In our review, we have paid particular attention to the issues identified in Daniel’s pro se response to her counsel’s brief in support of the motion to withdraw. After a review of the entire record in this appeal, we have determined the appeal to be wholly frivolous. See Bledsoe v. State , 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). Accordingly, we affirm the trial court's judgment.
