Jesse Scott Shobert v. State

Opinion

COURT OF APPEALS EIGHTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS EL PASO, TEXAS

JESSE SCOTT SHOBERT, § No. 08-12-00043-CR Appellant, § Appeal from the v. § 415th District Court THE STATE OF TEXAS, § of Parker County, Texas Appellee. § (TC#CR11-0567) § MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant Jesse Scott Shobert pleaded guilty to the offense of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and a jury assessed punishment at twenty years’ imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division. Appellant appealed.

Appellant’s court-appointed counsel has filed a motion to withdraw along with a brief in which he has concluded that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493, reh. denied, 388 U.S. 924, 87 S.Ct. 2094, 18 L.Ed.2d 1377 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See 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). A copy of counsel’s brief and the appellate record have been delivered to Appellant, and Appellant has been advised of his right to file a pro se brief.

This Court granted an extension of time for Appellant to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief has been filed.

We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel’s brief in its entirety, and we agree with counsel’s professional assessment that the appeal is frivolous and without merit. See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744; 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). Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
