BRIAN LYNELL MCGINNIS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 248th District Court Harris County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. 1056822, 1056823, and 1046983

agreed recommendation as to punishment with the State, and the trial court assessed punishment at confinement in each case for 20 years. We affirm. Appellant's court-appointed counsel filed a brief concluding that the appeal in each case is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 1400 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds of error to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Moore v. State, 845 S.W.2d 352, 353 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 1992, pet. ref'd). The brief states that a copy was delivered to appellant, whom counsel advised by letter of his right to examine the appellate record for each case and file a pro se brief. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). More than 30 days have passed, and appellant has not filed a pro se brief. We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel's brief. We find no reversible error in the record, and agree that the appeal in each case is wholly frivolous. We affirm the judgments of the trial court. (1) Any pending motions are denied as moot. PER CURIAM Panel consists of Justices Taft, Alcala, and Hanks. Do not publish. Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b). 1. Counsel has a duty to inform appellant of the result of the appeals and also to inform appellant that he may, on his own, pursue discretionary review in the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. See Ex parte Wilson, 956 S.W.2d 25, 27 (Tex. Crim. App. 1997).
