TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-12-00284-CR

Salvador Lara Reyes, Jr., Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF RUNNELS, 119TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 6124, HONORABLE BEN WOODWARD, JUDGE PRESIDING

After Salvador Lara Reyes, Jr. pled guilty to the first-degree felony offense of aggravated sexual assault of a child, the jury assessed punishment at forty years in prison. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.021(a)(1)(B)(ii) (West Supp. 2012). ⁽¹⁾

Reyes's court-appointed attorney has filed a motion to withdraw supported by a brief concluding that this appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 744 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the records demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See 386 U.S. at 744; see also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). Reyes was sent a copy of counsel's brief and was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744. No pro se brief has been filed and no extension of time was requested.

We have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. See Garner v. State, 300 S.W.3d 763, 766 (Tex. Crim. App. 2009); Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). We agree with counsel that the appeal is frivolous. Counsel's motion to withdraw is granted.

However, we conclude that the judgment of conviction contains a clerical error, listing the statute for offense as "22.011(A) (4) (B)." This Court has the authority to modify incorrect judgments when the necessary information is available to do so. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(b); Bigley v. State, 865 S.W.2d 26, 27-28 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993); see also McDonald v. State, No. 03-11-00540-CR, 2012 Tex. App. LEXIS 2592, at *2-3 (Tex. App.--Austin Mar. 30, 2012, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for publication) (modifying judgment to correct citation).  Accordingly, we modify the judgment to reflect the proper citation to the statute for the first-degree felony offense of aggravated sexual assault of a child, which is "Texas Penal Code § 22.021(a)(1)(B)(ii)." As modified, the judgment of conviction is affirmed.
