                         THIRTY -FOUR'l'H POINTS OF EF!__ROR:

                                           ln~ffectivc   assistance

         Appellant makes several allegations of ineffective assistance. They are all

 meritless first because they are based on unsupported factual assertions which are outside

the record. See Franklin v. State, 693 s.-W.2d 420, 431 (Tex. Crim. App. J 9R5), cert.

denied, 4 75 U.S. 1031 ( 1986 ); see also Ex parte Preston, 833 S.W .2d 515, 519 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1992) (statements and assertions contained in an appellate brief cannot he

accepted as fact).

        Second, Appellant's claims of ineffective assistance of counsel must be rejected

because he has failed to bring forward a record supporting his claim. See Thompson v.

~tate, ":J ~.\iv.3d   isuis, 81.3-14 (Tex. Crirn. App. 1999). T!tc lcL;i.JlU is si:cni. as l.u Gvunse:'s



record showing counsel's explanations for Appellant's present accusations, Appellant has

failed to overcome the presumption that the challenged actions constituted sound trial

strategy andhis claims must fail. See Bone v. State, 77 S.W.3d 828, 836 (Tex. Crim.

App. 2002); Thompson, 9 S.W.3d at 813-14.

       Third, some of Appellant's claims of poor strategy are based on his already-

discredited legal theory that indecency with a child is not a reportable conviction.

Contrary to Appellant's view, it would probably have been unprofessional for any

licensed attomey to proceed to defend Appellant based on this strategy.
