<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times"><STRONG>PER CURIAM</STRONG></SPAN></P>

<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	In each cause, appellant pleaded guilty before a jury to the offense of robbery.  Tex. Penal
Code Ann. § 29.02 (West 1994).  The jury assessed punishment in each cause at imprisonment for fifteen
years.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	Appellant's court-appointed attorney filed briefs in which he concludes that the appeals are
frivolous and without merit.  The briefs meet the requirements of <EM>Anders v. California</EM>, 386 U.S. 738
(1967), by advancing contentions which counsel says might arguably support the appeal.  <EM>See also</EM> <EM>Penson
v. Ohio</EM>, 488 U.S. 75 (1988); <EM>Gainous v. State</EM>, 436  S.W.2d 137 (Tex. Crim. App. 1969); <EM>Jackson v.
State</EM>, 485 S.W.2d 553 (Tex. Crim. App. 1972); <EM>Currie v. State</EM>, 516 S.W.2d 684 (Tex. Crim. App.
1974); <EM>High v. State</EM>, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).  A copy of counsel's briefs were
delivered to appellant, and appellant was advised of his right to examine the appellate record and to file a
pro se brief.  A pro se brief has been filed.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	We have reviewed the record and counsel's briefs and agree that the appeals are frivolous
and without merit.  A discussion of the contentions advanced by counsel would serve no beneficial purpose. 
In his pro se brief, appellant complains that the punishment assessed by the jury exceeds that offered by
the State before trial and asks for a new punishment hearing before the district court.  There is no evidence
of any plea bargain offer and, in any event, the record reflects that appellant elected that a jury assess
punishment.  That his chosen trial strategy did not produce the hoped-for result is not ground for a new trial.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	The judgments of conviction are affirmed.</SPAN></P>

<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">Before Justices Powers, Aboussie and Jones</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">Affirmed on Both Causes</SPAN></P>
