Andre Hurrey v. State

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN






NO. 03-07-00065-CR


Andre Hurrey, Appellant

v.



The State of Texas, Appellee






FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 147TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. D-1-DC-06-300078, HONORABLE WILFORD FLOWERS, JUDGE PRESIDING


M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N

A jury found appellant Andre Hurrey guilty of sexual assault. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.011 (West Supp. 2006). The jury assessed punishment at ten years' imprisonment.

Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); 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). Appellant also filed a pro se letter brief responding to counsel's brief.

We have reviewed the record, counsel's brief, and the pro se letter brief. We agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).

The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
