Tommy Glenn Lott v. The State of Texas--Appeal from 195th District Court of Dallas County

COURT OF APPEALS

EIGHTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

EL PASO, TEXAS

TOMMY GLENN LOTT,

Appellant,

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,

Appellee.

No. 08-03-00156-CR

Appeal from the

195th District Court

of Dallas County, Texas

(TC# F-9341760-MN)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant entered a plea of guilty before the court to the offense aggravated robbery enhanced by the allegation of two prior felony convictions. He was convicted, and the court assessed punishment at ten years deferred adjudication probation. Subsequently, appellant pleaded true to the State s motion to proceed to an adjudication of guilt and the court assessed punishment at thirty years imprisonment. We affirm.

Appellant s court-appointed counsel has filed a brief in which he has concluded that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493, reh. denied, 388 U.S. 924, 87 S. Ct. 2094, 18 L. Ed. 2d 1377 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). A copy of counsel s brief has been delivered to Appellant, and Appellant has been advised of his right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se brief. We have carefully reviewed the record and counsel s brief and agree that the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. A discussion of the contentions advanced in counsel s brief and the pro se brief would add nothing to the jurisprudence of the state.

The judgment is affirmed.
