Court of Appeals
Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont

NO. 09-05-052 CR

KRISTOFF JAMELL GROGAN, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Jefferson County, Texas
Trial Cause No. 88343
Appellant Kristoff Jamell Grogan pled guilty to aggravated robbery, and the jury assessed punishment at twenty years of imprisonment and a $10,000.00 fine. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 29.03(a)(2) (Vernon 2003).
Grogan's appellate counsel filed a brief that presents counsel's professional evaluation of the record and concludes the appeal is frivolous. 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 June 15, 2006, we granted an extension of time for Grogan to file a pro se brief. We received no response from the appellant.
We reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel's conclusion that no arguable issues support an appeal. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). The judgment is affirmed. (1)
AFFIRMED.
