HECTOR OMAR ROMERO, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 1
Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause Nos. F12-71161-H, F12-71361-H, F12-71362-H
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Francis, Evans, and Stoddart
Opinion by Justice Evans
Hector Omar Romero appeals his convictions, following the adjudication of his guilt, for
three offenses of third-degree-felony assault involving family violence.. See TEX. PENAL CODE
ANN. § 22.01(a)(1), (b)(2)(A) (West Supp. 2015) (previous assault/family violence conviction);
TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. §§ 71.0021, 71.005 (West 2014 & Supp. 2015). The trial court assessed
punishment at eight years’ imprisonment in each case. On appeal, appellant’s attorney filed a
brief in which she concludes the appeals are wholly frivolous and without merit. The brief meets
the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967). The brief presents 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, 811–12 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978). Counsel delivered a
copy of the brief 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) (identifying duties of appellate courts and counsel in Anders cases).
We have reviewed the record and counsel’s brief. 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.
