Edward Jermaine Bell v. the State of Texas ( 2024 )

Court of Appeals
Sixth Appellate District of Texas
JUDGMENT
Edward Jermaine Bell, Appellant Appeal from the 123rd District Court of
Panola County, Texas (Tr. Ct. No. 2016-C-
No. 06-23-00157-CR v. 0040). Panel consists of Chief Justice
Stevens and Justices van Cleef and Rambin.
The State of Texas, Appellee
Memorandum Opinion delivered by Chief
Justice Stevens.
As stated in the Court’s opinion of this date, we find there was partial error in the
judgment of the court below. Therefore, we modify the trial court’s judgment and the bill of
costs by deleting the $15.00 “DC Time Payment Reimbursement Fee,” which reduces the costs
to a total of $645.00 in both the judgment and the bill of costs. We also delete the $1,000.00 fine
from both the judgment and the bill of costs. Finally, we modify the bill of costs by deleting the
following: “If total court costs, reimbursement fees, and fines are not paid within 30 days of the
Judgment, an additional Time Payment Fee of $15.00 will be assessed pursuant to the applicable
statutes and related case law. (CCP § 102.030).” As modified, we affirm the judgment of the
trial court.
We note that the appellant, Edward Jermaine Bell, has adequately indicated his inability
to pay costs of appeal. Therefore, we waive payment of costs.
