In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ________________ NO. 09-17-00405-CR ________________ TONYA ANN VALLOT, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 17-26987 __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION In an open plea, Tonya Ann Vallot pleaded guilty to felony driving while intoxicated. 1 The trial court found that the evidence substantiated Vallot’s guilt and sentenced Vallot to ten years of confinement.

Vallot’s appellate counsel filed an Anders brief that presents counsel’s professional evaluation of the record and concludes that the appeal is frivolous. See

The record reflects that Vallot pleaded “true” to two prior convictions for driving while intoxicated.

Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On March 7, 2018, we granted an extension of time for Vallot to file a pro se brief. We received no response from Vallot. We have reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel’s conclusion that no arguable issues support the appeal. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal. Cf. Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim.

App. 1991). We affirm the trial court’s judgment. 2 AFFIRMED.
