Pursuant to plea bargain agreements, appellant James Kenneth Rawlinson pled guilty to forgery and debit card abuse. In each case, the trial court found the evidence was sufficient to find Rawlinson guilty, but deferred finding him guilty, placed him on community supervision for four years, assessed a fine of $500, and ordered Rawlinson to pay restitution. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke Rawlinson's unadjudicated community supervision in each case. In both cases, Rawlinson pled "true" to two violations of the terms of his community supervision. In each case, the trial court found that Rawlinson violated the conditions of his community supervision, assessed punishment at eighteen months of confinement in a state jail facility, and ordered that the sentences were to run concurrently.

Rawlinson's appellate counsel filed a brief in each case that presents counsel's professional evaluation 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 January 8, 2009, we granted an extension of time for appellant to file a pro se brief in each case. We received no response from the appellant. We have reviewed the appellate records, and we agree with counsel's conclusion that no arguable issues support these appeals. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeals. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court's judgments. ⁽¹⁾

AFFIRMED.
