GABRIEL BOYD SAXTON, Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 221st District Court

Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 99-01-00470-CR




MEMORANDUM OPINION

A jury found Gabriel Boyd Saxton guilty of the second degree felony offense of aggravated assault. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 22.02(a)(1), (Vernon 1994). The trial court assessed punishment at ten years confinement in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). The court further ordered that Saxton be placed in the Special Alternative Incarceration Program (S.A.I.P or Boot Camp), with the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division, having the authority to remove Saxton from the program and place him with the general inmate population, in the event he failed to abide by the rules and regulations of the program. After Saxton successfully completed the boot camp program, the trial court ordered that his sentence be suspended and placed him on community supervision for three years.

Appellate counsel filed a brief that concludes no arguable error is presented in this appeal. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On August 1, 2002, Saxton was given an extension of time in which to file a pro se brief. We received no response from the appellant. Because the appeal involves the application of well-settled principles of law, we deliver this memorandum opinion. See Tex. R. App. P. 47.1.

We have reviewed the clerk's record and the reporter's record, and find no arguable error requiring us to order appointment of new counsel. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). The judgment is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.
