CHRISTOPHER EUGENE ADDISON, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 204th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. F06-63021-Q, F12-71987-Q

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Lang, Stoddart, and Schenck
Opinion by Justice Lang

Christopher Eugene Addison appeals his convictions, following the adjudication of his guilt, for robbery and assault involving family violence. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. §§ 22.01(a)(1), (b)(2), 29.02(a) (West 2011); TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. §§ 71.0021, 71.005 (West 2008 & Supp. 2014). The trial court assessed punishment at five years' imprisonment for the robbery and one year's confinement in the county jail for the assault. On appeal, appellant's attorney filed a brief in which she concludes the appeals are wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). The brief presents a professional evaluation of the record showing why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to advance. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811-12 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel delivered a copy of the brief to appellant. We advised appellant of his right to file a pro se response, but he did not file a pro se response. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319-21 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (identifying duties of appellate courts and counsel in Anders cases).

We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (explaining appellate court's duty in Anders cases). We agree the appeals are frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeals.

We affirm the trial court's judgments.
