JOHNATHON RAMEY, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 363rd Judicial District Court
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. F17-35063-W, F17-35064-W
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Bridges, Francis, and Lang-Miers
Opinion by Justice Francis
Johnathon Ramey waived a jury trial and pleaded guilty to two felony assault family
violence offenses. After finding appellant guilty, the trial court assessed punishment at
imprisonment for six years in each case. On appeal, appellant’s attorney filed briefs in which he
concludes the appeals are wholly frivolous and without merit. The briefs meet the requirements
of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). The briefs present a professional evaluation of the
record showing why, in effect, there are no arguable grounds to advance. See High v. State, 573
S.W.2d 807, 812 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978) (determining whether brief meets
requirements of Anders). Counsel delivered a copy of the briefs to appellant. We advised appellant
of his right to file a pro se response, but he did not file a pro se response. See Kelly v. State, 436
S.W.3d 313, 319–21 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014) (noting appellant has right to file pro se response to
Anders brief filed by counsel).
We have reviewed the record and counsel’s briefs. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824,
826–27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (explaining appellate court’s duty in Anders cases). We agree the
appeals are frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support
the appeals.
We affirm the trial court’s judgments.
