Brad Elliott Williams v. State

Opinion

In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont __________________ NO. 09-19-00188-CR __________________ BRAD ELLIOTT WILLIAMS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 145th District Court Nacogdoches County, Texas Trial Cause No. F1823791 __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION A jury found appellant Brad Elliott Williams guilty of aggravated robbery and assessed punishment as a prior felony offender at twenty-seven years of imprisonment and a $200 fine.

Williams’s appellate counsel filed a brief that presents counsel’s professional evaluation of the record and concludes the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On October 21, 2019, we granted an extension of time for Williams to file a pro se brief. We received no response from Williams.

We reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel’s conclusion that no arguable issues support an 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.1 AFFIRMED.
