In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont _________________ NO. 09-11-00127-CR _________________ THADEUS JAMAL MITCHELL, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 08-04776 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant Thadeus Jamal Mitchell1 was indicted for the offense of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He entered a plea of not guilty to the charge. A jury found appellant guilty of aggravated assault and assessed punishment at five years confinement, but recommended that the punishment be probated. The trial court sentenced appellant to five years confinement, probated over ten years and assessed a fine of $1,000. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke Mitchell s community supervision. Mitchell pled 1 Thadeus Jamal Mitchell is also known as Thaddius Jamal Mitchell, Thadeaus Jamal Mitchell, and Thaddeus Mitchell. 1 true to four violations of the terms of his community supervision. The trial court found that Mitchell violated the terms of the community supervision order, revoked Mitchell s community supervision, and imposed a sentence of five years of confinement. Mitchell 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 April 7, 2011, 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 ___________________________ CHARLES KREGER Justice Submitted on July 11, 2011 Opinion Delivered July 27, 2011 Do not publish Before Gaultney, Kreger, and Horton, JJ. 2 Appellant may challenge our decision in this case by filing a petition for discretionary review.
