James Mark Sadler, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

---

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BURNET COUNTY, 33RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 7949, HONORABLE CHARLES J. HEARN, JUDGE PRESIDING

---

Appellant James Mark Sadler pleaded guilty to an indictment accusing him of five counts of fraudulent transfer of a motor vehicle. Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 32.34 (West 1994). After accepting appellant's plea and hearing his judicial confession, the district court found him guilty and assessed punishment at imprisonment for five years as provided in a plea bargain agreement.

In his only point of error, appellant contends the court failed to admonish him properly before accepting his plea. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 26.13(a) (West 1989). Appellant correctly points out that the court did not admonish him orally. The required admonishments, however, may be given either orally or in writing. Id. art. 26.13(d). The clerk's record contains a written admonishment form complying with article 26.13(d) and reflecting that appellant was fully admonished as required by article 26.13(a). The point of error is overruled.

The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
