Opinion Filed February 20, 2003. DO NOT PUBLISH, Tex.R.App.P. 47.

Appeal from the 219th Judicial District Court, Collin County, Texas, Trial Court Cause No. 219-80978-99. AFFIRM.

Before Justices WRIGHT, FITZGERALD, and LANG.


OPINION PER CURIAM


James Brian Chappell was convicted, on his non-negotiated guilty plea, of possession of methamphetamine in an amount of one gram or more but less than four grams. Punishment, enhanced by one prior felony conviction, was assessed at fifteen years confinement. Appellant, who is representing himself pro se, did not file a brief. Therefore, we ordered the appeal submitted without briefs. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b); Lott v. State, 874 S.W.2d 687 (Tex.Crim.App. 1994). Absent briefs, no points of error are before us. Finding no fundamental error, we affirm the trial court's judgment.

Although the indictment listed several prior convictions and the judgment reflects findings of true were made on Counts A, B., C, and D, it appears those were treated as one finding for enhancement purposes.
