Appeal from the 402nd Judicial District Court, Wood County, Texas, Trial Court No. 13,814-93.

Before Morriss, C.J., Ross and Carter, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On January 24, 1994, Gary Lee Allen pled guilty to four separate charges of forgery in a single hearing. The indictment in each case alleged Allen had two prior, sequential felony convictions, thereby raising the punishment range in each case to no fewer than twenty-five years, nor more than ninety-nine years, or imprisonment for life. See TEX. PENAL. CODE ANN. § 12.42(d) (Vernon 2003), § 32.21. On January 31, 2002, the trial court adjudicated Allen's guilt and sentenced him to twenty-five years' imprisonment in all four cases, with each sentence to be served concurrently. This appeal concerns only his conviction for forgery in trial court cause number 13,814-93. Each case was appealed separately, but the briefs in all four cases are substantively identical: Allen's counsel has reviewed the record and determined that there are no nonfrivolous issues that may be raised; he asks that we allow him to withdraw as counsel pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). Since the briefs and arguments raised therein are identical in each appeal, for the reasons stated in Gary Lee Allen v. The State of Texas, No. 06-02-00045-CR, we likewise affirm the trial court's judgment.

Amended by Act of May 29, 1993, 73rd Leg., R.S. ch. 900, § 1.01, 1993 Tex. Gen. Laws 3586, 3643-44.
