SHAD LEE ROMERO, Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 252nd District Court

Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause Nos. 07-01150, 07-01151




MEMORANDUM OPINION

Pursuant to plea bargain agreements, appellant Shad Lee Romero pled guilty to unauthorized use of a vehicle and burglary of a habitation. In each case, the trial court found the evidence sufficient to find Romero guilty, but deferred further proceedings, placed Romero on community supervision for five years, and assessed a fine of $500. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke Romero's unadjudicated community supervision in both cases. Romero pled "true" in both cases to six violations of the conditions of his community supervision. In each case, the trial court found that Romero violated the conditions of his community supervision and found him guilty. In the unauthorized use of a motor vehicle case, the trial court assessed punishment at two years of confinement in a state jail facility, and in the burglary of a habitation case, the trial court assessed punishment at twenty years of confinement. The trial court ordered that the sentences were to run concurrently.

Romero's appellate counsel filed briefs that present counsel's professional evaluation of the records and conclude 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 October 8, 2009, we granted an extension of time for appellant to file a pro se brief. We received no response from appellant. 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. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court's judgments. (1)





AFFIRMED.
