 ALTON HUDSON,                                          §       APPEAL FROM THE 3RD
 APPELLANT

 V.                                                     §       JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

 THE STATE OF TEXAS,
 APPELLEE                                               §       ANDERSON COUNTY, TEXAS

                                      MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                          PER CURIAM
       Alton Hudson appeals his conviction for assault of family member or member of household
with previous conviction.         Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967), and Gainous v. State, 436
S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969). We affirm.


                                               BACKGROUND
       Appellant was charged by indictment with assault by intentionally, knowingly, or
recklessly causing bodily injury to a member of the Appellant’s family, member of his household,
or a person with whom he has or has had a dating relationship, by pushing or striking the victim
with his hands. This offense is a third degree felony 1 because before the commission of the offense,
Appellant had been previously convicted of an offense under Chapter 19 of the Penal Code or
Sections 20.03, 20.04, 21.11, or 25.11 against a member of the Appellant’s family, member of his
household, or a person with whom he has or has had a dating relationship.
       Appellant pleaded “guilty” to the offense charged in the indictment. Appellant and his
counsel signed various documents in connection with his guilty plea, including a plea agreement


       1
           See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.01(a)(1), (b)(2)(A) (West Supp. 2019).
and punishment recommendation, and a stipulation of evidence and judicial confession in which
Appellant judicially confessed to the offense alleged in the indictment, admitted that he committed
each and every allegation alleged in the complaint, pleaded “true” to the enhancement allegation,
and admitted he was guilty as charged. The trial court accepted Appellant’s plea, found Appellant
guilty of the offense charged in the indictment, found the enhancement paragraph to be “true,” and
ordered that Appellant be placed on community supervision for ten years.
       Later, the State filed a motion to revoke community supervision, alleging that Appellant
violated the terms of his community supervision when he committed the offense of aggravated
assault by intentionally, knowingly, and recklessly causing serious bodily injury and using or
exhibiting a deadly weapon, namely a brick or rock, during the commission of the assault, and the
complainant was a member of the Appellant’s family, member of his household, or a person with
whom he has or has had a dating relationship. Further, the motion stated that on the same date,
Appellant intentionally fled from a person that Appellant knew was a peace officer who was
attempting to lawfully arrest or detain him.
       At the hearing on the State’s motion to revoke, Appellant pleaded “true” to all the
allegations pleaded by the State. The trial court took judicial notice of a previous conviction in
which Appellant was found guilty of assault family violence and assessed punishment at seventeen
years of imprisonment. A certified copy of the judgment in the previous conviction was admitted
as evidence. After the hearing, the trial court found all of the allegations in the State’s motion to
be “true,” granted the State’s motion to revoke, and assessed Appellant’s punishment at ten years
of imprisonment to be run consecutively with his previous assault family violence conviction. This
appeal followed.


                        ANALYSIS PURSUANT TO ANDERS V. CALIFORNIA
       Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders and Gainous, stating that he
diligently reviewed the appellate record and is of the opinion that the record reflects no reversible
error and that there is no error upon which an appeal can be predicated. From our review of
counsel’s brief, it is apparent that counsel is well acquainted with the facts in this case. In
compliance with Anders, Gainous, and High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 812 (Tex. Crim. App.
1978), counsel’s brief presents a chronological summation of the procedural history of the case,




                                                 2
and further states that counsel is unable to raise any arguable issues for appeal. 2 We have reviewed
the record for reversible error and have found none. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-
27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).


                                                   CONCLUSION
         As required by Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991), Appellant’s
counsel moved for leave to withdraw. See also In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d 403, 407 (Tex. Crim.
App. 2008) (orig. proceeding). We carried the motion for consideration with the merits. Having
done so and finding no reversible error, Appellant’s counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw is
hereby granted, and the trial court’s judgment is affirmed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2.
         Appellant’s counsel has a duty to, within five days of the date of this opinion, send a copy
of the opinion and judgment to Appellant and advise him of his right to file a petition for
discretionary review. See TEX. R. APP. P. 48.4; In re Schulman, 22 S.W.3d at 411 n.35. Should
Appellant wish to seek further review of this case by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, he
must either retain an attorney to file a petition for discretionary review or he must file a pro se
petition for discretionary review. See In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d at 408 n.22. Any petition for
discretionary review must be filed within thirty days from the date of either this opinion or, if a
motion for rehearing is filed, the date that the last timely motion for rehearing is overruled by this
court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 68.2(a). Any petition for discretionary review must be filed with the
Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. See TEX. R. APP. P. 68.3. Any petition for discretionary review
should comply with the requirements of Rule 68.4 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See
TEX. R. APP. P. 68.4; In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d at 408 n.22.

         2
           In compliance with Kelly v. State, Appellant’s counsel provided Appellant with a copy of the brief, notified
Appellant of his motion to withdraw as counsel, informed Appellant of his right to file a pro se response, and took
concrete measures to facilitate Appellant’s review of the appellate record. See Kelly v. State, 436 S.W.3d 313, 319
(Tex. Crim. App. 2014). Appellant was given time to file his own brief. The time for filing such brief has expired
and no pro se brief has been filed.
