Submitted on August 1,2022

On Appeal from the 356th District Court Hardin County, Texas Trial Cause No. 25864

Before Golemon, C. J., Kreger and Johnson, JJ.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

W. SCOTT GOLEMON CHIEF JUSTICE

In an open plea, appellant Wesley Jacob Jones pleaded guilty to the offense of repeated violation of court order or condition of bond. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 25.072. After conducting a sentencing hearing, the trial court found Jones guilty of the offense of repeated violation of court order or condition of bond and assessed Jones's punishment at five years of confinement.

Jones's appellate counsel filed an Anders brief that presents counsel's professional evaluation of the record and concludes that the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978). On April 27,2022, we granted an extension of time for Jones to file a pro se brief. We received no response from Jones.

We have independently reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel's conclusion that no arguable issues support the appeal. See id. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal. Cf Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). We affirm the trial court's judgment.

Jones may challenge our decision in this case by filing a petition for discretionary review. See Tex.R.App.P. 68.1.

AFFIRMED.
