MEMORANDUM OPINION
Scott Henry Baker pleaded guilty to two charges of unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon, possession of fraudulent identification, forgery, and possession of methamphetamine in an amount less than one gram. In each of the firearms possession cases, the trial court assessed punishment at imprisonment for eight years and a $1500 fine. In each of the remaining cases, the trial judge assessed punishment at two years confinement in a state jail facility and a $1500 fine.
Appellant's attorney filed a brief in which he concludes the appeals are 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 he has a right to file a pro se response, but appellant did not file a pro se response.
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief. We agree the appeals are frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeals.
Although not arguable issues, we note the trial court's judgments in cause nos. 05-05-00836-CR, 05-05-00837-CR, and 05-05-00839-CR do not accurately reflect the proceedings. Specifically, in the section of the judgments entitled "terms of plea bargain," the punishment assessed is printed, as if it was an agreed punishment. The record, however, reflects that appellant entered open guilty pleas to the offenses, not negotiated guilty pleas. We have the power to modify incorrect judgments when we have the necessary information to do so. 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). Accordingly, in cause nos. 05-05-00836-CR, 05-05-00837-CR, and 05-05-00839-CR, we modify the section of the judgments entitled "terms of plea bargain" to state "none."
We affirm the trial court's judgments in cause nos. 05-05-00838-CR and 05-05-00840-CR In cause nos. 05-05-00836-CR, 05-05-00837-CR, and 05-05-00839-CR, we affirm the trial court's judgments as modified.
