Robert Ray Hampton v. State
Robert Ray Hampton v. State
Opinion
PER CURIAM
In both causes, the district court found appellant guilty of aggravated robbery and assessed punishment at imprisonment for twenty-five years and a $1000 fine. Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 29.03 (West 1994). (1)
Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief in which he concludes that the appeals are frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by advancing a contention which counsel says might arguably support the appeal. 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 appeals are frivolous and without merit. A discussion of the contention advanced in counsel's brief would serve no beneficial purpose.
The judgments of conviction are affirmed.
