Bazy, Elak v. State

Opinion issued August 22, 2002















In The

Court of Appeals

For The

First District of Texas




NO. 01-01-00735-CR




ELAK BAZY, SR., Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 272nd District Court

Brazos County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 26,437-272




O P I N I O N



Appellant, Elak Bazy, pled guilty, under a plea-bargain agreement, to the offense of aggravated assault. Purusant to that agreement, the trial judge assessed punishment at 10 years in prison, probated for six years. The State later moved to revoke appellant's community supervision. Appellant pled true to the State's allegations, and the trial court revoked appellant's community supervision and assessed punishment at nine years in prison.

Counsel has filed a brief stating his opinion that the appeal is frivolous. The brief meets the minimum 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 stating why there are no arguable grounds of error on appeal. See Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137, 138 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). Counsel certifies that the brief and a copy of the record were delivered to appellant, who was advised he had a right to file a pro se response. Thirty days have passed, and appellant has not filed a pro se response.

We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. We agree that there are no arguable grounds for appeal.

We affirm the judgment of the trial court and grant counsel's motion to withdraw. See Stephens v. State, 35 S.W.3d 770,771 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 2000, no pet.).
