David Wayne Kerr v. State

IN THE

TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-15-00113-CR

DAVID WAYNE KERR,

Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS,

Appellee

From the 77th District Court Limestone County, Texas Trial Court No. 12491-A

MEMORANDUM OPINION

David Wayne Kerr was charged with the offense of aggravated sexual assault of a child younger than 14 years of age. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.021(a)(1)(B)(iii) and (a)(2)(B) (West 2011). He was placed on deferred adjudication community supervision but later adjudicated guilty and sentenced to 40 years in prison.

In three issues, Kerr complains that the judgment adjudicating guilt, signed on March 31, 2016, contains non-substantive inconsistencies with the record of Kerr’s adjudication. The State concedes the record and judgment are not entirely consistent.1 Accordingly, we reform2 the trial court’s judgment as agreed by the parties to reflect:

1. The phrase on page 2, under the heading “Furthermore, the following special findings or orders apply:” where the judgment states, “Judge Evans found items #1, 2, 4, 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 24, & 25 in the Motion to Adjudicate to be true” is reformed to state, “Judge Evans found items #1, 2, 4, 10, 12, 15, 16, 18, 19, 24, & 25 in the First Amended Motion to Adjudicate to be true;” and

2. The phrase on page 1, third segment below the heading, “JUDGMENT ADJUDICATING GUILT” where the judgment states, “Statute for Offense: 22.021(a)(2)(B) Penal Code” is reformed to state, “Statute for Offense: Penal Code Section 22.021(a)(1)(B)(iii) and (a)(2)(B).”

Kerr’s issues are overruled. As reformed, the trial court’s judgment is affirmed.3
