ORLEAN AYERS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Motion Granted; Affirmed and Memorandum Opinion filed April 8, 2014.
On Appeal from the 176th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 597938
MEMORANDUM OPINION
This is an appeal from the trial court's January 8, 2013, order finding post-conviction DNA test results pursuant to Chapter 64 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure were not favorable to appellant. Appellant's appointed counsel filed a brief in which he concludes 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 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).
This court affirmed appellant's 1992 conviction for aggravated robbery. See Ayers v. State, 879 S.W.2d 176 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 1994, no pet.).
A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to appellant. Appellant was advised of the right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se response. See Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 512 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). Appellant was provided a copy of the record, and he has now filed two pro se responses to counsel's brief.
We have carefully reviewed the record, counsel's brief, and the pro se responses, and agree the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we find no reversible error in the record. We need not address the merits of each claim raised in an Anders brief or a pro se response when we have determined there are no arguable grounds for review. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827-28 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
Accordingly, the order of the trial court is affirmed.
