TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN



NO. 03-09-00604-CR


William Franklin Green, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee




FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 299TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. D-1-DC-09-300188, HONORABLE CHARLES F. BAIRD, JUDGE PRESIDING


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

	A jury found William Green guilty of burglary of a habitation.  See Tex. Penal Code
Ann. § 30.02(a), (c) (West 2003) (defining burglary of habitation).  Afterwards, the district court
held a punishment hearing.  During the hearing, Green pleaded "not true" to two prior felony offense. 
See id. § 12.42(d) (West Supp. 2009) (elevating permissible punishments due to prior convictions). 
Ultimately, the district court determined that the prior allegations were true and imposed a
punishment of twenty-five years' imprisonment.  Shortly after the punishment was assessed, Green
appealed the district court's judgment.  
	On appeal, Green's attorney has filed a brief asserting that the appeal is frivolous and
without merit and a motion seeking leave to withdraw as Green's counsel.  Because the brief
presents a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrates that there are no arguable grounds
to be advanced, the brief meets the requirements articulated in Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738,
743-44 (1967).  See Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80 (1988); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 811-13
(Tex. Crim. App. 1978).  Further, Green's attorney sent Green a copy of the Anders brief and advised
him that he had the right to examine the record and file a pro se brief.  See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744;
Jackson v. State, 485 S.W.2d 553, 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972).  Green has not filed a pro se brief.
	We have considered the record and the brief filed by Green's attorney and agree that
the appeal is frivolous and without merit.  After reviewing the evidence presented to the jury and the
procedures that were observed, we find nothing in the record that might arguably support the appeal. 
Accordingly, we grant Green's attorney's motion to withdraw and affirm Green's conviction. (1)
