MEMORANDUM OPINION


Appellant entered a plea of guilty to the offense of possession of a firearm in trial court cause number 904,825. On September 16, 2002, the trial court deferred a finding of guilt and placed appellant on community supervision for five years. The State subsequently moved to adjudicate appellant's guilt, alleging violations of the terms and conditions of his community supervision. Appellant was then indicted for aggravated sexual assault and aggravated assault in trial court cause numbers 954,696 and 954,697. After a trial to the court, appellant was convicted of the offenses of possession of a firearm, aggravated sexual assault, and aggravated assault. On March 15, 2004, the court sentenced appellant to confinement for twenty years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in each case, with the sentences to be served concurrently. Appellant filed a timely, written notice of appeal in each case. Appellant's appointed counsel filed a brief in each case in which he concludes the appeals are wholly frivolous and without merit. The briefs meet the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396 (1967), presenting a professional evaluation of the records demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978). Copies of counsel's briefs were delivered to appellant. Appellant was advised of the right to examine the appellate records and file a pro se response in each case. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 510 (Tex.Crim.App. 1991). As of this date, more than thirty days have elapsed and no pro se response has been filed. We have carefully reviewed the records and counsel's briefs and agree the appeals are wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find no reversible error in the records. A discussion of the briefs would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the state. Accordingly, the judgments of the trial court are affirmed.
