MEMORANDUM OPINION
Shaun Matthew Hedge filed this appeal to challenge his conviction of fraudulent use of identifying information. On November 14, 2008, we abated the appeal and ordered the trial court to conduct a hearing to determine whether appellant still desired to prosecute his appeal and whether his counsel had abandoned the appeal. On December 31, 2008, this court adopted the trial court's findings that: (1) appellant absconded, indicating a desire not to prosecute his appeal; and (2) appellant's absconding precluded counsel from being able to prepare and file a brief. We further ordered the appeal to be submitted without briefs. In the interest of justice, we have reviewed the entire record but have found no unassigned fundamental error. See Lott v. State, 874 S.W.2d 687, 688 (Tex.Crim.App. 1994). Accordingly, the trial court's judgment is affirmed. See id.
