In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-09-00535-CR ____________________ ANGELA LEA DUNAWAY a/k/a ANGELA DUNAWAY, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 08-04472 MEMORANDUM OPINION Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, appellant Angela Lea Dunaway a/k/a Angela Dunaway1 pled guilty to forgery. The trial court found Dunaway guilty and assessed punishment at two years of confinement in a state jail facility, then suspended imposition of sentence and placed Dunaway on community supervision for five years. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke Dunaway s community supervision. Dunaway pled true to two violations of the terms of the community supervision order. The trial court 1 Appellant is further identified in the record as Angela Coudrain. 1 found that Dunaway violated the terms of the community supervision order, revoked Dunaway s community supervision, and imposed a sentence of two years of confinement in a state jail facility. Dunaway 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, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On March 25, 2010, we granted an extension of time for appellant to file a pro se brief. We received no response from the appellant. We have 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. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court s judgment.2 AFFIRMED. ________________________________ CHARLES KREGER Justice Submitted on August 5, 2010 Opinion Delivered August 18, 2010 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Kreger, JJ. 2 Appellant may challenge our decision in this case by filing a petition for discretionary review. See TEX. R. APP. P. 68. 2
