Eugene A. Priggett, Jr. v. State
Opinion
Eugene A. Priggett, Jr. appeals his convictions in two cases. (1) In Cause No. 05-04-03204-CR, Priggett pled guilty and received a ten-year sentence for the third degree felony offense of retaliation. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 36.06(a), (c) (Vernon Supp. 2007). In Cause No. 06-06-05488-CR, Priggett pled guilty and received a twenty-year sentence for the first degree felony offense of aggravated robbery. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 29.03(a), (b) (Vernon 2003). The trial court ordered the sentences to be served concurrently.
On appeal, Priggett's counsel filed a brief that presents counsel's professional evaluation of the records and concludes the appeals are frivolous. 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 13, 2007, we granted an extension of time for the appellant to file a pro se brief. The appellant did not file a response with the Court.
We reviewed the appellate records, and we agree with counsel's conclusion that no arguable issues support the appeals. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeals. Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005); cf. Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court's judgments. (2)
AFFIRMED.
