                   CURTIS JAMES PRITCHARD, Appellant

                       THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

           On Appeal from the County Criminal Court at Law No. 8
                           Harris County, Texas
                       Trial Court Cause No. 1804094

                 MEMORANDUM OPINION ON REMAND


      Appellant Curtis James Pritchard appeals his conviction for assault of a
family member. On original submission, appellant argued that there was
insufficient evidence in the record to support the court’s costs of $342 reflected in
the judgment. We agreed and modified the trial court’s judgment to delete the
specific amount of costs assessed. Pritchard v. State, No. 14-12-00769-CR; 2014
WL 119003 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] Jan. 14, 2014) vacated and
remanded, No. PD-0070-14; 2014 WL 1512892 (Tex. Crim. App. Apr. 16, 2014).
The Court of Criminal Appeals vacated our judgment and remanded in light of its
opinion in Johnson v. State, 423 S.W.3d 385 (Tex. Crim. App. 2014).

       The judgment includes an assessment of $342 in court costs. A supplemental
clerk’s record was filed, which contains a certified, signed bill of costs listing $342
in court costs. We review the assessment of court costs on appeal to determine if
there is a basis for the costs, not to determine whether there was sufficient evidence
offered at trial to prove each cost. Johnson v. State, 423 S.W.3d at 390. Traditional
sufficiency-of-the-evidence standards of review do not apply. Id.

       Generally, a bill of costs must (1) contain the items of cost, (2) be signed by
the officer who charged the cost or the officer who is entitled to receive payment
for the cost, and (3) be certified. Id. at 392–93; see Tex. Crim. Proc. Code Ann.
arts. 103.001, 103.006. The record supports the assessment of costs in this case
because the record contains a bill of costs that contains each item of cost, is signed
by a representative of the district clerk’s office who is entitled to receive payment
of the costs, and is certified. See Johnson, 423 S.W.3d at 393.

       The trial court assessed $342 in costs against appellant. The sum of the
itemized costs in the cost bill is $342. There being no challenge to any specific cost
or the basis for the assessment of such cost, the bill of costs supports the costs
assessed in the judgment. Id. at 396. The fact that the bill of costs was not prepared
until after the court signed the judgment does not defeat the lawfulness of the bill
of costs. Id. at 394. (“[M]atters pertaining to the imposition of court costs need not
be brought to the attention of the trial court, including a bill of costs prepared after
a criminal trial.”).
