On Appeal from the 221st District Court, Montgomery County, Texas, Trial Cause No. 05-01-00773 CR.
Before GAULTNEY, KREGER and HORTON, JJ.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Christopher Dale Wilson pleaded guilty before a jury on an indictment for the second degree felony of indecency with a child by contact. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. § 21.11(a)(1), (d) (Vernon 2003). The jury sentenced Wilson to eighteen years of confinement in Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Correctional Institutions Division. The trial court certified that this is not a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has the right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Appellate counsel filed a brief in which he presents a professional evaluation of the record and concludes that the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978). On November 9, 2006, we granted Wilson an extension of time in which to file a pro se brief. The appellant did not file a response. We have reviewed the clerk's and the reporter's records, and find no arguable error requiring us to order appointment of new counsel to brief the issues on appeal. Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex.Crim.App. 2005); cf. Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex.Crim.App. 1991). The judgment is affirmed. AFFIRMED.
Appellant may challenge our decision in the case by filing a petition for discretionary review. See Tex. R. App. P. 68.
