                              APPELLANT'S BRIEF




TO THE HONORABLE COURT OF APPEALS:

      COMES NOW, DESTANY JENEE (REED) LILES, Appellant, and submits

this brief. Appellant will be referred to as "Appellant" or "Destany Liles." Appellee,

the State of Texas, will be referred to as "Appellee" or the "State." Since there are

two causes on appeal in this matter, all citations to the Clerk's Record (CR) will be

[aggravated assault with a deadly weapon]; and 24,698-C [aggravated assault with a

deadly weapon].




                                          1
                        IV. STATEMENT OF THE CASE

      Nature of the case. The State of Texas charged Destany Liles by indictment

with the offense of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. (CR 20,498-C 4). She

plead guilty to that offense on April 22, 2009, and was granted six years deferred

adjudication. (CR 20,498-C 17). The State filed its Motion to Revoke on December

13, 20 13, alleging that Ms. Liles had committed a new offense, that being the offense

charged in cause number 24,698-C.

      On October 16, 2013, Ms. Liles was indicted for the offense of aggravated

assault with a deadly weapon in cause number 24,698-C.

      Course ofproceedings. On Apri127, 2015, Ms. Liles plead "not true" to the

Motion to Revoke and "not guilty" to the new charge, and the consolidated matters

were tried to the Court. The trial court found the allegation in cause number 20,498-

C to be "true" and found Ms. Liles "guilty" of the offense in cause number 24,698-

C, and sentenced Ms. Liles to four years in TDCJ, with the sentences to run

concurrently. (CR 52, 37). Thereafter, and within the time limits of the T.R.A.P.,

Appellant filed her notice of appeal. (CR 59, 43).



      Trial court disposition. The trial court rendered judgment on the verdicts on

April27, 2015. (CR 52, 37).

                    V. ISSUES PRESENTED FOR REVIEW


      Issue No. 1: The evidence adduced at trial was legally insufficient to
                   support a conviction in this case.

      Issue No.2: The trial court abused its discretion in sentencing
                  Appellant to four years in the Texas Department of
                  Criminal Justice Institutional Division.

      Issue No.3: Appellant's rights were violated as counsel for Appellant
                  was ineffective.


                          VI. STATEMENT OF FACTS

      Officer Aaron Fulcher, of the Amarillo Police Department, testified that on

September 28, 2013, he was called out to the 4100 block of Republic Avenue in

Randall County, Texas in regard to a fight with items being thrown out of a room.

(RR 25-26). When he arrived at the location, the door was open, and he could hear

a male and a female arguing. (RR 27). The male, identified as Ronald Liles, was

sitting on the couch and had injuries to his genitalia. (RR 28). The female was

identified as Destany Liles. (RR 29).

      Mr. Liles told the officer that there was a gun at the scene, and Mrs. Liles told

him that she had put the gun to her own head and then pointed it at Mr. Liles to keep

him from leaving the apartment. (RR 29). The officers located the weapon, a loaded


                                          3
.38 Smith & Wesson revolver, behind one of the bedroom doors. (RR 30-31).

       Mr. Liles had abrasions and scratches around his neck and was bleeding

through his khakis shorts. (RR 35). Mrs. Liles did not appear to have any injuries.

(RR 37).

       Ronald Liles, Appellant's ex-husband, testified that he had asked Mrs. Liles

for a divorce, and that she thought that he was cheating on her and staying out too

much. (RR 50). The fight escalated, and he grabbed a backpack so that he could

leave. (RR 51). During the fight, Mrs. Liles grabbed Mr. Liles, pulled his shorts

and underwear off, grabbed his testicles, and seriously injured him.       (RR 55).

According to Mr. Liles, "she is incredibly strong when she is upset, and there was

no defending yourself against her." (RR 55). As he was trying to leave, Mrs. Liles

knocked him down, grabbed the backpack, and removed the gun from it. (RR 51-

52, 61). First, she pointed the gun at herself, but then pointed it at Mr. Liles. (RR

53).

       Appellant testified that Mr. Liles had been drinking since about 5:00 that

afternoon. (RR 72). They went to dinner about 8:30p.m., and Mr. Liles continued

to drink. (RR 72-73). They argued at the restaurant and got back home about 9:30

p.m. (RR 73). Mr. Liles was upset about the confrontation at the restaurant. (RR

74). Just before 11 p.m., Destany went into the living room and found him on the


                                         4
couch, with his backpack by the front door. (RR 75). He was smoking a cigarette

and told her that he was "getting ready." (RR 75). They began to talk about what

had happened earlier in the evening, attempt to have sex, then physically begin to

fight.    (RR 78-79). Eventually, Destany takes the backpack, says "this is the bag

with the gun in it", and throws it into the bathtub. (RR 81). She attempts to get Mr.

Liles to leave the apartment, but after repeated attempts, takes the gun from the

backpack, points it at herself, and contemplates suicide from about thirty minutes."

(RR 82, 85-87, 97). Mrs. Liles denied having pointed the weapon at Mr. Liles.



                      VII. SUMMARY OF THE ARGUMENT

         In compliance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18

L.Ed.2d 493 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 813 (Tex.Crim.App. 1978); and

Monroe v. State, 671 S.W.2d 583, 585 (Tex.App.-San Antonio, 1984, no pet.),

counsel on appeal is required to discuss any evidence adduced at trial and point out

where error might exist.



                                VIII. ARGUMENT




                                          5
      Point of Error No. 1 (Restated):
      The evidence was legally insufficient to allow for a conviction of
      aggravated assault with a deadly weapon because the State failed to
      prove the essential elements of the offenses.


      Standard for Legal Sufficiency

      Appellant might contend that the evidence is legally insufficient to show the

essential elements of the offenses of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. Tex.

Pen. Code Ann. §22.02 (Vernon 2015). In addressing legal sufficiency, the court

considers all of the evidence in the light most favorable to the verdict and determines

whether any rational trier of fact could have found all the elements of the offense

beyond a reasonable doubt. The reviewing court must assume that all conflicts in

the testimony were resolved in favor of the verdict of guilty. Jackson v. Virginia,

443 U.S. 307, 99 S.Ct. 2781, 61 L.Ed.2d 560 (1979). All evidence admitted at trial

must be considered in a sufficiency review. Porter v. State, 662 S. W.2d 602, 609

(Tex. Crim. App. 1984).

      As to the revocation of community supervision, the appellate standard of

review for legal sufficiency is less rigorous. For probation revocation cases, the

appellate standard of review is whether the trial court abused its discretion.

Hacker v. State, 389 S.W.3d 860, 865 (Tex. Crim. App. 2013).


                                           6
          Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon

          The Texas Penal Code states that a person commits an offense if she

intentionally or knowingly commits assault and the person uses or exhibits a deadly

weapon during the commission of the assault. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. §22.02 (Vernon

20 15).     "Assault" is defined in Texas Penal Code §22.0 1 as intentionally or

knowingly threatening another with imminent bodily injury. Aggravated assault is

a second degree felony. Tex. Pen. Code Ann. §22.02(b).


          Although the testimony at trial conflicted, it seems that everyone agrees that

Mrs. Liles had access to the weapon. When the officer arrived on scene, Mr. Liles,

was sitting on the couch and had injuries to his genitalia. (RR 28). There is no

dispute that Mr. Liles had abrasions and scratches around his neck and was bleeding

through his khakis. Shorts. (RR 3 5). Mrs. Liles did not appear to have any injuries.

(RR 37). Mr. Liles testified that Mrs. Liles had the gun and pointed it at him. Officer

Fulcher testified that Mrs. Liles admitted to him that she had pointed the gun at Mr.

Liles to keep him from leaving the apartment. (RR 29).

          Counsel for Appellant concludes that there is no issue as to legal sufficiency

of the evidence.



                                             7
      Point of Error No. 2 (Restated):
      The trial court abused its discretion in sentencing Appellant to four
      years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice Institutional
      Division.


      In reviewing a trial court's determination of the appropriate punishment in any

given case, a great deal of discretion is allowed the sentencing court. Jackson v.

State, 680 S.W.2d 809, 814 (Tex.Crim.App.l984). A court abuses its discretion

when it acts without reference to any guiding rules or principles so as to render the

conclusion ultimately reached arbitrary, unreasonable, and outside the zone within

which reasonable minds may differ. See Montgomery v. State, 810 S.W.2d 372,380,

391 (Tex.Crim.App.1990). Accordingly, a trial court that imposes a sentence upon

a defendant without having any factual basis for that sentence may well abuse his

discretion. Jackson, 680 S.W.2d at 814. However, if the record reflects that the

judge had evidence before him that he could rely upon in making the assessment of

the sentence that was imposed, the general rule prevails, which provides that a trial

court's discretion is limited only by the maximum sentence allowed by law. Id.;

Tamminen v. State, 653 S.W.2d 799, 803 (Tex.Crim.App.1983).




                                         8
      In Solem v. Helm, 463 U.S. 277, 103 S.Ct. 3001, 77 L.Ed.2d 637 (1983), the

United States Supreme Court set out a the three-prong test for proportionality that

included looking at: (1) the gravity of the offense and the harshness of the penalty;

(2) the sentences imposed on other criminals in the same jurisdiction; and (3) the

sentences imposed for commission of the same crime in other jurisdictions. /d. at

292. The Supreme Court re-examined the Solem test in Harmelin v. Michigan, 501

U.S. 947 (1991). It is unclear fromHarmelin whether the Solem proportionality test

survived. See Sullivan v. State, 975 S.W.2d 755, 757 (Tex.App.-Corpus Christi

1998, no pet.).   However, when the Fifth Circuit later analyzed Harmelin, it

concluded:


      we will initially make a threshold comparison of the gravity of [the
      appellant's offense] against the severity of his sentence. Only if we
      infer that the sentence is grossly disproportionate to the offense will we
      then consider the remaining factors of the Solem test and compare the
      sentence received to ( 1) sentences for similar crimes in the same
      jurisdiction and (2) sentences for the same crime in other jurisdictions.
      McGruder v. Puckett, 954 F.2d 313,316 (5th Cir.1992).


      Punishment Excessive

      Appellant might contend that the trial court abused its discretion in assessing

punishment at four years' confinement in this case. Here, the punishment was within

the range set out by law.


                                          9
      Based upon the facts of this case, counsel for Appellant concludes that the

trial court did not abuse its discretion is assessing punishment in this case.




      Point of Error No.3 (Restated):
      Appellant's rights were violated as counsel for Appellant was ineffective.


      The test for ineffective assistance of counsel is to show that the attorney's

representation fell below an objective standard of reasonableness and that this

deficient performance prejudiced the defendant. Ex parte Battle, 817 S. W.2d 81, 84

(Tex.Crim.App. 1991)(citing Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct.

2052, 80 L. Ed.2d 674, 1984).

      To prevail on an ineffective assistance of counsel claim, Appellant must

demonstrate that her attorney's representation fell below a reasonable standard of

effectiveness and that the deficient performance was so serious that it prejudiced his

defense. Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674

(1984); McFarland v. State, 845 S.W.2d 824, 842 (Tex.Crim.App.l992). To meet

this burden, he must prove by a preponderance of the evidence that his attorney's

representation fell below the standard of prevailing professional norms, and that

there is a reasonable probability that, but for his attorney's deficiency, the result of


                                          10
the trial would have been different. In ruling on an ineffective assistance of counsel

claim, the appellate court considers the totality of the evidence before the jury. Any

allegation of ineffectiveness must be firmly founded in the record, and the record

must affirmatively demonstrate the alleged ineffectiveness. Failure to make the

required showing of either deficient performance or sufficient prejudice defeats the

ineffectiveness claim.

      The appellate court's rev1ew of trial counsel's representation is highly

deferential. There is a strong presumption that the trial attorney's conduct falls

within a wide range of reasonably effective representation.           The burden is on

Appellant to overcome that presumption. He must show specific acts or omissions

that constitute ineffective assistance and affirmatively prove that those acts fall

below the professional norm for reasonableness. The appellate court makes a full

inquiry into trial counsel's strategy or tactics only if, from all appearances after trial,

there is no plausible basis in strategy or tactics for his actions. Ex parte Burns, 60 1

S. W.2d 3 70, 3 72 (Tex.Crim.App.1980). The court does not second-guess counsel's

trial strategy, nor the fact that another attorney might have pursued a different

course. Blatt v. State, 588 S.W.2d 588, 592 (Tex.Crim.App.1979). The fact that

another attorney, even Appellant's counsel on appeal, might have pursued a different

course of action does not necessarily indicate ineffective assistance. Harner v. State,


                                            11
997 S.W.2d 695, 704 (Tex.App.-Texarkana 1999, no pet.).

       Even if he were to prove errors on the part of trial counsel, Appellant would

have to affirmatively prove prejudice.          He would have to prove that his trial

attorney's errors, judged by the totality of the representation and not by isolated

instances of error, denied him a fair trial. It would not be enough for Appellant to

show that the errors had some conceivable effect on the outcome of the proceedings;

he would have to demonstrate that there was a reasonable probability that, but for

his trial attorney's errors, the jury would have had a reasonable doubt about his guilt.

       Counsel on appeal has thoroughly reviewed the trial record, spending a great

deal of time reading both the reporter's record and the clerk's record herein, and

concludes thereafter that no error exists as to ineffective assistance of counsel.



                                    IX. PRAYER

       WHEREFORE, PREMISES CONSIDERED, for the reasons discussed

herein, Appellant respectfully requests that he receive all relief to which he is

entitled.

                         CERTIFICATE OF COUNSEL

      In compliance with the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738,
87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), the undersigned appointed counsel of record
for Destany Liles, on appeal, states that counsel has diligently reviewed the entire
record in this cause and the law applicable thereto, and it is his opinion that the
appeal of the judgment of conviction in this cause is without merit and frivolous
because the record reflects no reversible error. Further, it is the opinion of the
undersigned counsel that there are not grounds of error upon which an appeal can be
predicated.

       The undersigned has mailed a copy of this brief along with a letter outlining
the position of counsel that the appeal is essentially without merit. Also included in
the letter is an advisement that Ms. Liles may review the record and file a pro se
appellate brief, if she so desires.
