AFFIRMED as Modified; Opinion Filed March 26, 2014. In The Court of Appeals Fifth District of Texas at Dallas No. 05-13-00909-CR No. 05-13-00910-CR WILLIAM NELLIUS HUBBARD, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 7 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause Nos. F05-26988-Y, F05-26990-Y MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Lang-Miers, Myers, and Lewis Opinion by Justice Myers William Nellius Hubbard appeals following the adjudication of his guilt for two aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon offenses. In six issues, appellant asks us to modify the trial court s judgment to correct several errors. We modify the judgment in each case and affirm as modified. Appellant waived a jury and pleaded guilty to two aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon offenses. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. ยง 29.03(a)(2) (West 2011). Pursuant to plea agreements, the trial court deferred adjudicating guilt and placed appellant on community supervision for ten years. The State later moved to adjudicate guilt, alleging appellant violated the conditions of his community supervision. In a hearing on the motion, appellant pleaded not true to one allegation and true to the remaining seventeen allegations. The trial court found all of the allegations true, adjudicated appellant guilty, and assessed punishment at fifty years imprisonment in each case. Appellant argues the judgment in each case should be modified to show (1) he pleaded not true to one allegation, (2) the correct name of his attorney at the hearing on the motion to adjudicate, and (3) there was no plea bargain agreement. The State agrees the judgments should be modified in the manner appellant has requested. The record shows appellant pleaded not true to allegation (a) in the motions to adjudicate and pleaded true to allegations (b) through (u); appellant was represented by Sindhu Alexander at the hearing on the motion to adjudicate; and there was no plea agreement in either case. The judgments, however, incorrectly recite appellant pleaded true to the motions to adjudicate, was represented by Cariann Abramson, and had plea bargain agreements. We sustain appellant s six issues. We have the power to modify the trial court s judgments when we have the necessary information before us to do so. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(b) Bigley v. State, 865 S.W.2d 26, 27 28 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993); Asberry v. State, 813 S.W.2d 526, 529 30 (Tex. App. Dallas 1991, pet. ref d). Accordingly, we modify the trial court s judgment in each case to reflect the following: (1) the attorney for appellant is Sindhu Alexander; (2) the plea to the motion to adjudicate is not true to allegation (a) and true to allegations (b) through (u); and (3) the terms of plea bargain are open. -2- As modified, we affirm the trial court s judgments. / Lana Myers/ LANA MYERS JUSTICE Do Not Publish TEX.
