MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices FitzGerald, Lang, and Brown
Opinion by Justice Brown
Jaime Guerrero Lopez appeals following the adjudication of his guilt for two offenses of aggravated sexual assault of a child younger than fourteen years. The trial court assessed punishment at twenty years' imprisonment in each case. In two issues, appellant contends the trial court's judgments adjudicating guilt should be modified to show there were no plea bargain agreements and to reflect the correct statute for the offenses. We modify the trial court's judgments adjudicating guilt and affirm as modified.
The judgments adjudicating guilt recite plea bargain terms as "20 years penitentiary." The record, however, shows appellant pleaded true to the motions to adjudicate without the benefit of plea bargains. Thus, the judgments are incorrect. Additionally, the judgments adjudicating guilt incorrectly identify the statute for the offense as "22.21 Penal Code." Appellant was convicted of aggravated sexual assault of a child younger than fourteen years under section 22.021 of the Texas Penal Code. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.021(a)(1)(B) (West Supp. 2014). Thus, the judgments are incorrect. We sustain appellant's two issues.
We modify the judgments adjudicating guilt to show (1) the statute for the offense is "22.021 Penal Code;" and (2) to delete "20 years Penitentiary" from the "terms of plea bargain" section. 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).
As modified, we affirm the trial court's judgments adjudicating guilt.
