VELISA WARREN JONES, Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 359th District Court

Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 01-04-02459-CR




MEMORANDUM OPINION

A jury found Velisa Warren Jones to be guilty of the state jail felony offense of forgery. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 32.21(b), (d) (Vernon Supp. 2002). The court assessed punishment at twenty months of confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State Jail Division.

Appellate counsel filed a brief that concludes no arguable error is presented in this appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On April 25, 2002, Jones was given an extension of time in which to file a pro se brief. We received no response from the appellant. Because the appeal involves the application of well-settled principles of law, we deliver this memorandum opinion. See Tex. R. App. P. 47.1.

We have reviewed the clerk's record and the reporter's record, and find no arguable error requiring us to order appointment of new counsel. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). The judgment is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
