David Bradley Newton v. State ( 2015 )


Menu:
  • AFFIRM; and Opinion Filed July 29, 2015.
    In The
    Court of Appeals
    Fifth District of Texas at Dallas
    No. 05-14-01452-CR
    DAVID BRADLEY NEWTON, Appellant
    V.
    THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
    On Appeal from the 203rd Judicial District Court
    Dallas County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause No. F11-72170-P
    MEMORANDUM OPINION
    Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Brown and Stoddart
    Opinion by Justice Brown
    David Bradley Newton was convicted of failure to register as a sex offender. This appeal
    follows the revocation of his community supervision and the imposition of his ten-year sentence.
    On appeal, appellant’s attorney filed a brief in which she concludes the appeal is 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 appeal is frivolous and without merit. We find nothing in the record that might arguably
    support the appeal.
    We affirm the trial court’s judgment.
