Joseph Mayes v. State
Joseph Mayes v. State
Opinion
On October 23, 2000, Mayes pled guilty without a plea bargain to the offense of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon. Mayes also pled "true" to the allegation he was previously convicted of forgery. The trial court deferred adjudicating guilt, placed Mayes under community supervision for five years, and assessed a fine of $500.00.
On January 7, 2002, Mayes pled "true" to an allegation that he left an inpatient treatment program in violation of his probation. After hearing the plea, the trial court continued Mayes's probation but required him to successfully complete a treatment program. On May 21, 2004, Mayes pled "true" to allegations that he failed to maintain suitable employment and became intoxicated. The trial court extended Mayes's probation for two years and ordered him to successfully complete a treatment program. On June 16, 2005, Mayes pled "true" to the allegation he provided a urine sample showing the presence of a metabolic by-product of alcohol. The trial court revoked Mayes's community supervision, found him guilty of the offense of possession of a firearm by a felon, and assessed punishment at five years of confinement.
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 December 1, 2005, this Court provided Mayes an extension of time in which to file a pro se brief. Mayes has not filed a pro se brief.
We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel's brief, and we find no arguable error requiring us to order appointment of new counsel. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). Accordingly, we affirm the trial court's judgment.
AFFIRMED.
