In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont _________________ NO. 09-10-00257-CR _________________ COY WILLIAMS III, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 92221 _______________________________________________________________ ___ ______ MEMORANDUM OPINION Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, appellant Coy Williams III pled guilty to engaging in organized criminal activity. The trial court found the evidence sufficient to find Williams guilty, but deferred further proceedings, placed Williams on community supervision for five years, and assessed a fine of $1000. The State subsequently filed a motion to revoke Williams s unadjudicated community supervision. Williams pled true to three violations of the conditions of his community supervision. The trial court found that Williams violated the conditions of his community supervision, found Williams 1 guilty of engaging in organized criminal activity, and assessed punishment at two years of confinement in a state jail facility. 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, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On October 21, 2010, we granted an extension of time for appellant to file a pro se brief. We received no response from appellant. 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 rebrief the appeal. Compare Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court s judgment.1 AFFIRMED. _________________________________ DAVID GAULTNEY Justice Submitted on February 09, 2011 Opinion Delivered February 23, 2011 Do not publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Kreger, JJ. 1 Appellant may challenge our decision in this case by filing a petition for discretionary review.
