Felix Salinas v. State

Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN






NO. 03-97-00464-CR


Felix Salinas, Appellant


v.



The State of Texas, Appellee








FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF KARNES COUNTY, 218TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 94-06-00050-CRK, HONORABLE OLIN B. STRAUSS, JUDGE PRESIDING


PER CURIAM

Appellant pleaded guilty to an indictment accusing him of burglary of a building. After finding that the evidence substantiated appellant's guilt, the district court deferred further proceedings and placed him on community supervision. Later, the court revoked supervision on the State's motion, adjudicated appellant guilty, and assessed punishment at imprisonment for twenty years.

Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding 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); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). 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.
