Dear Ms. Estes,
RE: Case Number: 12-16-00062-CR
Trial Case Number: F1521620
Styled: Michael Wayne Hogan v. The State of Texas
The State, hereinafter Appellee, acknowledges receipt of the Anders brief filed by
Appellant’s counsel. Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). The brief filed by
Appellant’s counsel presents no claim of error, illustrating counsel’s reasoning for the
same supported by case law, and counsel has requested permission to withdraw. See Id. at
744 (stating “if counsel finds his case to be wholly frivolous, after a conscientious
examination of it, he should so advise the court and request permission to withdraw.”);
High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978) (noting Appellant’s counsel
must brief the reviewing court, citing “‘ready references not only to the record, but also
to the legal authorities as furnished it by counsel.’” (quoting Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738, 745 (1967)).
There being no claim of error, Appellee cannot point to any issue in Appellant’s brief that
merits a response as required by 38.2 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. TEX. R.
APP. P. 38.2(a)(2). Therefore, Appellee will abstain from filing any further response
unless this Court determines that Appellant’s appeal is not frivolous and orders Appellee
to respond to this matter. See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744.
