ORDER
Appellant was convicted upon pleas of guilty to four counts of forgery and
one count of theft of property under $500.00. She was sentenced to concurrent
three-year sentences for the forgery convictions and a concurrent eleven month,
twenty-nine day sentence for the theft offense. On appeal Appellant complains
that the trial court erred in denying her prob ation or pla ceme nt in a com munity
corrections program. After a review of the record we conclude the judgment of
the trial court must be affirmed pursuant to Rule 20, Rules of the Court of
Criminal Appeals.
The record reflects Appellant has three prior forgery convictions and
numerous shoplifting offenses committed while she was a juvenile. When the
instant offenses were committed she was still on probation for the previous
forgery convictions. Under these circumstances we find no error in the trial
court’s de nial of prob ation or co mm unity corre ctions pla ceme nt.
According ly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed pursuant to Rule 20,
Rules of the Court of Criminal Appeals.
