Appellant Robert Michael Vega was indicted for capital murder. Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, Vega pled guilty to the lesser-included offense of murder. As part of the plea bargain agreement, the trial court granted Vega the right to appeal. The trial court found Vega guilty of murder and assessed punishment at sixty years of confinement.

Vega's appellate counsel filed a brief that presents counsel's professional evaluation of the record and concludes the appeal is 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 August 20, 2009, we granted an extension of time for appellant to file a pro se brief. We received no response from the appellant.

We reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel's conclusion that no arguable issues support an appeal. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We note that in the section entitled "Statute for Offense[,]" the trial court's judgment incorrectly recites "19.03(a)(2) Penal Code[.]" See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 19.03(a)(2) (Vernon Supp. 2009) (capital murder). This court has the authority to reform the trial court's judgment to correct a clerical error. See Bigley v. State, 865 S.W.2d 26, 27 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993). Therefore, we delete this language and substitute "19.02(b) Penal Code" in its place. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 19.02(b) (Vernon 2003) (murder). We affirm the trial court's judgment as reformed. ⁽¹⁾

AFFIRMED AS REFORMED.
