Alfred Collins v. State ( 2000 )

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03- 00 -00 122 -CR Alfred Collins , Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 167TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 0994804 , HONORABLE MICHAEL LYNCH , JUDGE PRESIDING The district court found appellant Alfred Collins guilty of attempted violation of a protective order and assessed punishment at incarceration in a state jail for two years, probated. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. §§ 15.01 (West 1994), 25.07 (West Supp. 2000). Collins represents himself on appeal after his retained trial counsel was permitted to withdraw with Collins's consent. A reporter's record was not requested and, after Collins was given notice and an opportunity to cure, the appeal was submitted for decision without a reporter's record. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.3(c)(1). Collins did not file a brief. See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b)(4). We have examined the record before us and find no fundamental error that should be considered in the interest of justice. The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
