GENIPHER NICOLE MACHOVSKY, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 265th Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F15-57254-R
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Francis, Fillmore, and Schenck
Opinion by Justice Schenck
Genipher Nicole Machovsky waived a jury and pleaded guilty to fraudulent use or
possession of fifty or more items of identifying information. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN.
§ 32.51(b), (c)(4). The trial court sentenced appellant to imprisonment for fifteen years. 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
her right to file a pro se response, but she 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 trial court’s judgment incorrectly reflects there
was a plea bargain agreement. The record shows appellant entered an open plea of guilty to the
charges in the indictment. Accordingly, on our own motion, we modify the section of the judgment
entitled “terms of plea bargain” to state “open.” 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.
