IN THE COURT OF APPEALS



TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT



TYLER, TEXAS

TRACY GLASSCOCK,§ APPEAL FROM THE 114TH

APPELLANT



V.§ JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF



THE STATE OF TEXAS,

APPELLEE§ SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM



Tracy Glasscock ("Appellant") appeals the trial court's revocation of his deferred adjudication probation, for which he was sentenced to imprisonment for twenty years and fined five thousand dollars. Appellant's counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967) and Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). We affirm.



Background

Appellant pleaded guilty to sexual assault, a second degree felony. (1) The court deferred finding Appellant guilty and placed him on probation for ten years. The State filed a motion to revoke Appellant's probation and to proceed to adjudication, alleging that Appellant had violated certain terms of his probation. Specifically, the State argued that, among other things, Appellant failed to write an unequivocal letter of apology to his sexual assault victim on or before February 21, 2003. Subsequently, a hearing was held on the State's motion. Appellant pleaded "true" to the aforementioned allegation and the trial court ultimately found that Appellant had violated the terms of his probation as alleged. The trial court revoked Appellant's probation, proceeded to adjudicate Appellant guilty of sexual assault, and assessed Appellant's punishment at imprisonment for twenty years and a fine of five thousand dollars. This appeal followed.



Analysis Pursuant to Anders v. California

Appellant's counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967) and Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). Appellant's counsel states that he has diligently reviewed the appellate record and is of the opinion that the record reflects no reversible error and that there is no error upon which an appeal can be predicated. He further relates that he is well acquainted with the facts in this case. In compliance with Anders, Gainous, and High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978), Appellant's brief presents a chronological summation of the procedural history of the case, and further states that Appellant's counsel is unable to raise any arguable issues for appeal. (2) We have likewise reviewed the record for reversible error and have found none.

Conclusion

As required by Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991), Appellant's counsel has moved for leave to withdraw. We carried the motion for consideration with our consideration of this matter. Having done so and finding no reversible error, Appellant's counsel's motion for leave to withdraw is hereby granted and the trial court's judgment is affirmed.
