v. 213th District Court

THE STATE OF TEXAS, of Tarrant County, Texas

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant waived a trial by jury and entered an open guilty plea to the offense of
possession of a controlled substance of one gram or more, but less than four grams,
namely: cocaine. TEX.HEALTH & SAFETY CODE ANN. § 481.115(c)(West 2010). He
was convicted, and the court assessed punishment at imprisonment for 10 years’ running
concurrently with a companion conviction on appeal with this Court docketed as No. 08-
13-00131-CR, and a fine of $344.00. We affirm.
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, reh. denied, 388
U.S. 924, 87 S.Ct. 2094, 18 L.Ed.2d 1377 (1967), by advancing contentions which
counsel says might arguably support the appeal. 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 been advised of his right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se
brief. No pro se brief has been filed.
The record reflects that Appellant was admonished of the consequences of his plea
pursuant to TEX.CODE CRIM.PROC.ANN. art. 26.13 (West Supp. 2013), and Appellant
made a judicial confession admitting his guilt.
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. A discussion of the contentions advanced in
counsel’s brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the state.
The judgment is affirmed.
