MICHAEL SHAWN CHAFFIN, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Affirmed as Modified; Opinion Filed June 27, 2013.
On Appeal from the 382nd Judicial District Court
Rockwall County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 2-12-216
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Lang, Myers, and Evans
Opinion by Justice Lang
Michael Shawn Chaffin waived a jury, pleaded guilty to burglary of a habitation, and pleaded true to one enhancement paragraph. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 30.02(a) (West 2011). The trial court assessed punishment at fifty years' imprisonment and a $10,000 fine. On appeal, appellant's attorney 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 (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 (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.
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (explaining appellate court's duty in Anders cases). We agree the appeal is frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal.
Although not an arguable issue, we note that appellant's name is misspelled in the trial court's nunc pro tunc judgment. Thus, we modify the nunc pro tunc judgment to correct the spelling of appellant's name to Michael Shawn Chaffin. 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). As modified, we affirm the trial court's judgment.
