ACCEPTED 01-15-00027-CR FIRST COURT OF APPEALS HOUSTON, TEXAS 6/2/2015 11:54:17 AM CHRISTOPHER PRINE CLERK TERRENCE LEON HOLMES FILED IN ATTORNEY AT LAW 1st COURT OF APPEALS 455 Milam Street HOUSTON, TEXAS Beaumont, Texas 77701-4914 6/2/2015 11:54:17 AM (409) 832-6041 CHRISTOPHER A. PRINE Clerk June 1st, 2015 LEGAL MAIL: TDCJ# 1967053 EARL W. WILMORE, JR. 3295 FM 3514 Gist State Jail Beaumont, TX 77705 RE: APPEAL NO. 01-15-00027-CR (TRIAL NO. 13-17241) Dear EARL WILMORE, JR., After diligently reviewing the record under this cause number and researching the law, I found no reversible error committed by the trial court and no arguable ground of error. It is counsel's opinion that this appeal is without merit. Under Ander's v. California, an appellate attorney can file a brief of this kind after reviewing the record and researching the law and concludes that there is no arguable ground of error when counsel may file such a brief. However, you have the right to review the record and file a pro-se brief raising any ground or error or complaint, which you may desire that the record supports. After filing a pro- se brief and after the Court of Appeals renders a judgment and opinion, you have a right to file a pro-se petition for discretionary review pursuant to Rule 68 of the Texas Rules of Appellant Procedure. A copy of the Court of Appeals judgment and opinion will be mailed to your last known address and you will have only 30 days in which to file a pro-se petition for discretionary review in the Court of Appeals. Tex. R, App. P. 68.2. You must timely inform me of any change in the address at which you or currently living or any change in your current prison unit, so that, you don’t lose the opportunity to file a pro-se petition for discretionary review. I have filed a Motion To Extend Time To File A Brief on your behalf, requesting that you be afforded an additional 30 days from the date you receive the record in order for you to file a pro-se brief in this matter if you choose to do so. Also, I have filed a Motion to Withdraw as Counsel so that you can submit your own Appellate Brief. I have enclosed the record so that you can file your brief. It has been a pleasure to represent you in this matter and I hope you "good luck" in this cause. Furthermore, if you have any questions about this cause, please contact me in writing. Respectfully, /s/Terrence Leon Holmes Terrence Leon Holmes Attorney at Law TLH/mbj Enclosure
