No. 08-07-00196-CR Appeal from the Criminal District Court No.2 of Tarrant County, Texas (TC# 1041442D) |
O P I N I O N
Bobby Ray Wiley appeals a judgment convicting him of delivery of a controlled substance of less than one gram. Appellant was convicted by a Tarrant County jury on June 13, 2007. Pursuant to his election, Appellant was sentenced by the trial court immediately following the jury's verdict. Appellant plead "true" to the enhancements presented by the State, and was sentenced to 15 years' imprisonment.
Appellant's court appointed counsel has filed a brief in which he has concluded that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See 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). A copy of counsel's brief has been delivered to Appellant, and Appellant has not exercised his right to file a pro se brief.
We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel's brief, and agree that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. The judgment is affirmed.
