Court of Appeals
Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
No. 05-12-01078-CR
ERIC ROSE, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 1
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F11-55385-Y
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Myers and Brown
Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
Eric Rose pleaded guilty before a jury to aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon and
true to an enhancement paragraph alleging a prior felony conviction. The jury assessed
punishment at seventy-five years’ imprisonment. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 29.03(a)(2)
(West 2011). On appeal, appellant’s attorney filed a brief in which he concludes the appeal is
wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967). The brief presents a professional evaluation of the record showing why, in
effect, there are no arguable grounds to advance. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811–12
(Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to appellant. We
advised appellant of his right to file a pro se response, but he did not file a pro se response. See
Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319–21 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (identifying duties of appellate
courts and counsel in Anders cases).
We have reviewed the record and counsel’s brief. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824,
826–27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (explaining appellate court’s duty in Anders cases). We agree
the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably
support the appeal.
Although not an arguable issue, we note the section of the trial court’s judgment that
pertains to the enhancement paragraph incorrectly states “n/a.” We modify the trial court’s
judgment to show that appellant pleaded true to the enhancement paragraph and that the
paragraph was found true. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(b); Bigley v. State, 865 S.W.2d 26, 27–28
(Tex. Crim. App. 1993); Asberry v. State, 813 S.W.2d 526, 529–30 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1991,
pet. ref'd).
As modified, we affirm the trial court’s judgment.
