Franklin Delano Croft v. State ( 1999 )

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-98-00479-CR

Franklin Delano Croft, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 264TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 47,783, HONORABLE C. W. DUNCAN, JR., JUDGE PRESIDING

PER CURIAM
Appellant pleaded guilty to robbery. After finding that the evidence substantiated
appellant's guilt, the district court deferred further proceedings and placed appellant on community
supervision. Later, after finding that he violated the conditions of his supervision, the court
adjudged appellant guilty and sentenced him to imprisonment for four years and a $1000 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.
