LADARREAN LOFFEYETTE WILLIAMS, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 3
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. F15-51035-J, F13-61695-J
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Lang-Miers, Brown, and Schenck
Opinion by Justice Brown
LaDarrean Loffeyette Williams was convicted, following the adjudication of his guilt, of
assault involving family violence, with a prior assault involving family violence conviction
(cause no. 05-15-00524-CR), and a new offense of assault involving family violence by
impeding the breath, having a prior assault involving family violence conviction (cause no. 05-
15-00523-CR). See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. §§ 22.01(a)(1), (b)(2), (b-1) (West 2011); TEX.
FAM. CODE ANN. §§ 71.0021, 71.005 (West 2008 & Supp. 2014). The trial court assessed
punishment at five years’ imprisonment in cause no. 05-15-00524-CR and ten years’
imprisonment in cause no. 05-15-00523-CR. On appeal, appellant’s attorney filed a brief in
which she concludes the appeals are 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 do so. 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 appeals are frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably
support the appeals.
We affirm the trial court’s judgments.
