Terry Strange v. State ( 2001 )

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-00-00128-CR

Terry Strange, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY, 368TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 98-972-K368, HONORABLE BURT CARNES, JUDGE PRESIDING

A jury found appellant Terry Strange guilty of the unauthorized use of a vehicle.
See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 31.07 (West 1994). The jury assessed punishment, enhanced by
previous felony convictions, at imprisonment for twenty years and a $1500 fine.
Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed a brief concluding that the appeal is
frivolous and without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S.
738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record demonstrating why there are no
arguable grounds to be advanced. See also Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State,
573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978); Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App.
1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d
137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). A copy of counsel's brief was delivered to appellant, and appellant
was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a pro se brief. No pro se brief
has been filed.
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree that the appeal is
frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal.
The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
