### MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justice s Francis, Evans, and Stoddart Opinion by Justice Stoddart Marquis Obrian White pleaded guilty to two charges of aggravated sexual assault and two charges of sexual assault of a child . White entered an open plea of guilty to the charges, and ple a d ed tru e to two enhancement paragraphs

. In each case, t he trial court sentenced White to life imprisonment and assessed fines ; the trial court ordered the sentences to run consecutively . In two issues, White argues the trial court abused its discretion by failing to order a presentence investigation and the trial court failed to consider the full range of punishment options. W e modify the trial court’s judgments to delete the assessment s of fines. As modified, we affirm the judgments.– 2

– Both of White’s issues arise from the trial judge’s comments after the State rested its case. The judge said: “Because I’m going to deny your request for a PSI or a CATS evaluation. I think you preserved any kind of appeal issue if that’s what you’re req uesting, but I’m going to deny that request. It’s not something I’m even close to considering is probation.” At the beginning of the proceedings, the trial judge informed White the range of punishment in each

case was either “deferred probation or 25 to life.” Although White maintains the trial court erred by failing to request a presentence investigation and by failing to consider probation, White was not entitled to either. White pleaded guilty to two charges of aggravated sexual assault with a deadly weapon,

see T EX
. P ENAL C ODE § 22.021, and two charges of sexual assault of a child , s ee id. § 22.011. Aggravated sexual assault is a first degree felony. Id. § 22.021(e). Sexual assault of a child is a second degree felony. Id. § 2 2.011(f). However, because White also pleaded true to two enhancement paragraphs, the appropriate statutory punishment range was imprisonment for life, or for any term of not more than 99 years or less than 25 years. See id. § 12.42(d). A defendant is not eligible for comm unity supervision if the person is sentenced to a term of imprisonment that exceeds 10 years, see T EX
. C ODE C RIM
. P ROC
. A NN
. art. 42.12 § 3(e)(1), or the person is convicted of an offense under section 22.021 of the penal code , see id. art. 42.12 §3g (a)(1 )(E). In his first issue, White complains the trial court failed to order presentencing reports. The code of criminal procedure states a “judge is not required to direct an officer to prepare a presentence report in a felony case under this section” if the “only available punishment is imprisonment.” Id. art. 42.12 § 9(g)(3). As established above, the statutory punishment for an individual convicted of the offenses committed by White is imprisonment. Because White was
not eligible for community supervision after being found guilty , the trial court did not err by failing to order any presentencing reports. See Munoz v. State , No. 03

. art. 42.12 §§ 3g(a)(1)(E), 9(g)(3)) (“as appellant concedes in his brief, appellant was not entitled to have a PSI conducted in the instant case because the jury convicted him of multiple counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child, and thus he was not eligible for community supervision.”); Jimenez v. State , 446 S.W.3d 544, 550

. C ODE C RIM
. P ROC
. A NN
. art. 42.12 § 9(g)(3)) (defendant convicted of aggravat ed sexual assault not entitled to presentence investigation). White also argues the trial court erred by failing to order a Comprehensive Assessment and Treatment Services (CATS) evaluation. When faced with a similar challenge, this Court previously sta ted: “Without any mandatory authority requiring the trial court to order a CATS evaluation, appellant cannot show the trial court abused its discretion by failing to order one.” Tollefsrud v. State , No. 05

- 11

- 00857

- CR, 2012 WL 2054789, at *2 (Tex. App.

— Da llas June 8, 2012, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for publication). Although the proceeding before the trial court in Tollefsrud was a motion to revoke probation, the same principle applies to White’s case. White has not cited any authority

— and we ha ve not found any

— requiring the trial court to order a CATS evaluation. We conclude the trial court did not err by refusing to order a CATS evaluation. We overrule White’s first issue. In his second issue, White argues the trial court failed to consider t he full range of punishment options “when it pre

- determined that Appellant would not receive probation before hearing all of the evidence.” The code of criminal procedure specifically states an offender such

as White , upon conviction, is not eligible for community supervision

. See T EX
. C ODE C RIM
. P ROC
. A NN
. art. 42.12 §§ 3(e)(1), 3g (a)(1)(E). Once the trial court found White guilty on his pleas, he was only eligible to serve a term of years. Therefore, to consider the entire range of– 4

– punishment, the trial court was not require d to c onsider probation

. We overrule White’s second issue. In each case , the trial court assessed punishment at life imprisonment, a $10,000 fine, and court costs. The statutory punishment for an individual convicted of the o ffenses committed by White is imprisonment for a term of years

. See T EX
. P ENAL C ODE § 12.42(d). The penal code does not authorize the trial court to assess fines against White. See id. ; see also Dolph v. State , 440 S.W.3d 898, 908 (Tex. App.

— Texarkana 2 013, pet. ref’d). Therefore, the portion of the trial court’s judgments in which White was assessed fines were not authorized. An appellate court may reform a judgment containing unauthorized punishment. See Ex parte Johnson , 697 S.W.2d 605, 607

- 08 (Tex. Crim. App. 1985); T EX
. R. A PP
. P . 43.2. Because the fine s w ere not authorized, we modify the judgment s to delete the fine s assessed against White

. In each case, we modify the judgment to delete the assessment of a fine. As modified, we affirm the tria l court’s judgments.
