MICHELLE PETRICE ABRAM, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
AFFIRM; Opinion issued January 14, 2013
On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 3
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F11-63009-J
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Lang-Miers, Myers, and Lewis
Opinion by Justice Lang-Miers
Michelle Petrice Abram waived a jury, pleaded guilty to theft of property from an elderly person, and pleaded true to one enhancement paragraph. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.03(a), (f)(3)(A) (West Supp. 2012). After finding appellant guilty, the trial court assessed punishment at ten years' imprisonment. On appeal, appellant's attorney filed a brief in which she 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 her right to file a pro se response, but she 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.
We affirm the trial court's judgment.
