Memorandum Opinion by Justice van Cleef MEMORANDUM OPINION Micah David Brown entered an open plea of guilty to intoxication assault with a motor vehicle causing serious bodily injury. After a bench trial on punishment, the trial court sentenced Brown to eight years’ imprisonment. On appeal, Brown argues (1) that the trial court did not allow him to comment on his presentence investigation report during the sentencing hearing and (2) that his counsel “was ineffective in failing to object to this oversight.”1 We addressed Brown’s points of error in detail in our opinion of this date on Brown’s appeal in cause number 06-23-00038-CR.

As a result, we affirm the trial court’s judgment.
