Joseph Larol Eglan v. State

Opinion

IN THE COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT OF TEXAS,


AT AUSTIN










NO. 3-94-231-CR






JOSEPH LAROL EGLAN,


APPELLANT



vs.






THE STATE OF TEXAS,


APPELLEE











FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 27TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT


NO. 43,888, HONORABLE STANTON B. PEMBERTON, JUDGE PRESIDING








PER CURIAM

Appellant pleaded guilty and judicially confessed to the offense of aggravated assault. The district court adjudged him guilty and assessed punishment at imprisonment for eight years.

Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief in which he concludes that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to appellant, and appellant was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.

We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal.

The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
