STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 252nd District Court
Jefferson County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 99161
O P I N I O N
The trial court convicted Romisque Jerway Sims of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon and assessed his
punishment at confinement for four years. We affirm.
Appellant=s court-appointed counsel has filed a motion to withdraw. The motion is supported by a brief in which
counsel professionally and conscientiously examines the record and applicable law and states that he has concluded
that the appeal is frivolous. Counsel has provided appellant with a copy of the brief and advised appellant of his right
to review the record and file a response to counsel=s brief. A response has not been filed. Counsel has provided
appellant with a copy of the brief and advised appellant of his right to review the record and file a response to
counsel=s brief. A response has not been filed. Court-appointed counsel has complied with the requirements of Anders
v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991); High v. State, 573
S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Gainous v. State, 436
S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969); Eaden v. State, 161 S.W.3d 173 (Tex. App.CEastland 2005, no pet.).
Following the procedures outlined in Anders, we have independently reviewed the record, and we agree that the appeal
is without merit. We note that counsel has the responsibility to advise appellant that he may file a petition for
discretionary review by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. Ex parte Owens, 206 S.W.3d 670 (Tex. Crim. App.
2006). Likewise, this court advises appellant that he may file a petition for discretionary review pursuant to Tex. R.
App. P. 66. Black v. State, 217 S.W.3d 687 (Tex. App.CEastland 2007, no pet.).
The motion to withdraw is granted, and the judgment is affirmed.
