MEMORANDUM OPINION
V.H., a juvenile, appeals from the juvenile court s disposition order placing him on probation and sending him to the
Challenge Program. We affirm.
Appellant s court-appointed counsel has filed a brief in which she has concluded that the appeal is wholly frivolous
and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d
493, reh. denied, 388 U.S. 924, 87 S.Ct. 2094, 18 L.Ed.2d 1377 (1967), by advancing contentions which counsel says
might arguably support the appeal. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516
S.W.2d 684 (Tex.Crim.App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex.Crim.App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436
S.W.2d 137 (Tex.Crim.App. 1969). The procedures established in Anders apply to juvenile appeals. In re D.A.S., 973
S.W.2d 296, 297 (Tex. 1998).
A copy of counsel s brief has been delivered to V.H., and he has been advised of his right to examine the appellate
record and 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 wholly frivolous and without
merit. Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. A further discussion of the
arguable ground advanced in counsel s brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the state. The judgment is
affirmed.
