Joshua Lee Dixon v. State

Affirm and Opinion Filed August 19, 2015. In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-15-00357-CR JOSHUA LEE DIXON, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 380th Judicial District Court Collin County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 380-82812-2014 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Fillmore, Myers, and Evans Opinion by Justice Myers Joshua Lee Dixon was convicted of delivery of methamphetamine in an amount of one gram or more but less than four grams. See TEX. HEALTH & SAFETY CODE ANN. §§ 481.102(6), 481.112(c) (West 2010). Punishment, following the revocation of appellant’s community supervision, was assessed at five years’ imprisonment. Appellant filed a pro se motion to dismiss the appeal. However, because the motion was not signed by counsel, and counsel did not respond to our letter inquiring about whether he concurred in appellant’s decision, we could not grant the motion. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.2(a) (both appellant and counsel must sign motion to dismiss appeal). Therefore, we ordered the trial court to make findings regarding whether appellant desired to pursue the appeal. We adopted the trial court’s finding that appellant does not wish to pursue the appeal and we submitted the appeal without briefs. See TEX. R. APP. P. 38.8(b)(4). Absent briefs, no issues are before us. Finding no fundamental error, we affirm the trial court’s judgment. /Lana Myers/ LANA MYERS JUSTICE Do Not Publish TEX. R. APP.
