APPEALS FROM THE 145TH 

JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

NACOGDOCHES COUNTY, TEXAS

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

Henry Earl Randle appeals two convictions for theft of property valued at less than 

$1,500 with two or more previous theft convictions. 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 two indictments with theft of property valued at less than 

$1,500 with two or more previous theft convictions and pleaded “guilty.” The matter proceeded 

to a bench trial on punishment. The trial court assessed his punishment at imprisonment for one 

year in each case, to be served concurrently. This appeal followed. 

ANALYSIS PURSUANT TO ANDERS V. CALIFORNIA

Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California and Gainous v. 

State. Appellant’s counsel relates that he has reviewed the appellate record and found no error 

that could arguably support an appeal. In compliance with High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807, 812 
2

(Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978), counsel’s brief contains a thorough professional evaluation 

of the record demonstrating why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced.1

We have considered counsel’s brief and conducted our own independent review of the 

record. Id. at 811. We have found no reversible error.

CONCLUSION

As required by Anders and Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 511 (Tex. Crim. App. 

1991), Appellant’s counsel has 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, we agree with Appellant’s counsel that the 

appeal is wholly frivolous. Accordingly, we grant counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw and 

affirm the judgment of the trial court.

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, 252 S.W.3d at 411 n.35. 

Should Appellant wish to seek review of these cases by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals, he 

must either retain an attorney to file a petition for discretionary review on his behalf or he must 

file a pro se petition for discretionary review. Any petition for discretionary review must be filed 

within thirty days from the date of this court’s judgment or the date the last timely motion for 

rehearing was 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(a). Any petition for discretionary review should comply with the requirements of Rule 68.4 

of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See In re Schulman, 252 S.W.3d at 408 n.22.

Opinion delivered October 21, 2016.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.

(DO NOT PUBLISH)

 

1 Counsel for Appellant certified in his brief that he provided Appellant with a copy of the brief. Appellant 

was given time to file his own brief in this cause. The time for filing such a brief has expired and no pro se brief has 

been filed.
