TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN





NO. 03-08-00305-CR


David Lee Wright, Appellant

v.


The State of Texas, Appellee





FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 264TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 61911, HONORABLE MARTHA J. TRUDO, JUDGE PRESIDING



M E M O R A N D U M    O P I N I O N

A jury found appellant David Lee Wright guilty of evading arrest with a vehicle. 
See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 38.04(a), (b)(1) (West 2003).  The jury assessed punishment, enhanced
by two previous felony convictions, at six years' imprisonment.
Temple Police Officer Dan Kallus testified that he was acquainted with appellant and
knew that he does not have a valid driver's license.  Therefore, when Kallus saw appellant driving
an automobile, the officer activated the lights and siren on his marked patrol car and attempted to
stop him.  Appellant did not stop.  Instead, appellant accelerated, drove several blocks, turned into
a parking lot, abandoned his car, and fled on foot.  Appellant was found hiding in a ditch.
Appellant's court-appointed attorney has filed a motion to withdraw supported by a
brief concluding that the appeal is frivolous and without merit.  The brief meets the requirements of
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), by presenting a professional evaluation of the record
demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced.  See also Penson v. Ohio,
488 U.S. 75 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978);
Currie v. State, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974); Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553
(Tex. Crim. App. 1972); Gainous v. State, 436 S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969).  Appellant
received a copy of counsel's brief and was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and
to file a pro se brief.  No pro se brief has been filed.
We have reviewed the record and counsel's brief and agree that the appeal is frivolous
and without merit.  We find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. 
Counsel's motion to withdraw is granted.
The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
