Jeffery Lee Hoyle v. State

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-06-00641-CR Jeffery Lee Hoyle, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF RUNNELS COUNTY, 119TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 5543, HONORABLE THOMAS J. GOSSETT, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION A jury found appellant Jeffery Lee Hoyle guilty of delivering methamphetamine. See Tex. Health & Safety Code Ann. § 481.112(a), (c) (West 2003). The jury assessed punishment, enhanced by a previous felony conviction, at ninety-nine 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 brief. We have reviewed the record, counsel’s brief, and the pro se brief. We agree with counsel that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). Counsel’s motion to withdraw is granted. The judgment of conviction is affirmed. __________________________________________ Jan P.
