BILLIE RENEE BROWN, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 252nd Judicial District Court

Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Court No. 93434

Before Morriss, C.J., Ross and Carter, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice Ross

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Billie Renee Brown appeals from her conviction for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. She was also convicted for theft in a separate case. Both cases were consolidated for trial, have been appealed separately, and have been consolidated for purposes of briefing on appeal.

          Since the briefs and arguments raised therein are identical in both appeals, for the reasons stated in Brown v. State, No. 06-05-00075-CR, we likewise resolve the issues in this appeal in favor of Brown.

          We reverse the judgment of the trial court as to punishment, and we remand this case to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

                                                                           Donald R. Ross

                                                                           Justice
