Citation: Not availableDocket: 01-04-00774-CR
Court: Court of Appeals of Texas; February 2, 2005; Texas; State Appellate Court
Original Court Document: View Document
Harrison Batiste, III pleaded no contest to assaulting a public servant and was placed on five years of community supervision with a $500 fine as part of a plea bargain. Following a motion by the State to adjudicate guilt, Batiste admitted to the allegations, leading the trial court to impose a 10-year prison sentence. The appeal was filed, and Batiste's court-appointed counsel submitted a motion to withdraw, asserting the appeal lacked merit under Anders v. California. The counsel's brief provided a professional assessment indicating no arguable grounds for error and confirmed that Batiste was informed of his right to review the appellate record and file a pro se brief, which he did not do within the 30-day period. After reviewing the case, the court found no reversible error and affirmed the trial court's judgment, granting counsel's motion to withdraw. The opinion was issued by a panel including Justices Nuchia, Jennings, and Alcala, and is not to be published.
