## Robert Eugene Pryor, Appellant pled guilty of the crime of Aggravated Robbery, as defined by V.T.C.A. Penal Code Sec. 29.03 in the 

## 405':^ Judicial District Court of Galveston County, Texas. The trial Court deferred entry of an adjudication of guilt, and sentenced Appellant to five years community supervision. After contested hearing on the State's Amended Motion to Adjudicate Guilt - Revoke Community Supervision, 

## and entered a Judgment Adjudicating Guilt in which an entry of "N/A" was made below the heading of "Findings on Deadly Weapon". Appellant now appeals his conviction and sentencing for the offense.

6ISSUES PRESENTED FOR REVIEW 

### In its Judgment Adjudicating Guilt, the 405"^ Judicial District Court 

## should have entered explicitly that there had been no affirmative 

## finding of a deadly weapon in Appellant's case, rather than the entry of "N/A" in the Judgment.

7S TAT E M E N T O F T H E FA C T S 

## On November 5,2013, Appellant pled guilty to the offense of Aggravated Robbery as defined in V.T.C.A. Penal Code Sec. 29.03. The 

## trial court deferred entering an adjudication of guilt, and sentenced Appellant to 5 ears community supervision. On March 25, 2014 the State of Texas by and through her Criminal District Attorney a Motion to Adjudicate Guilt-Revoke Community Supervision, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit "A", alleging that Appellant had violated certain conditions of his community supervision order, to wit: 

## "la. On or about the 24*^^ of January, 2014, in Galveston County, Texas, said Defendant, Robert Eugene Pryor, did then and there commit the offense of Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity; and lb. On or about the 24^ day of January, 2014, in Galveston County, Texas, said Defendant, Robert Eugene Pryor, did then and there, commit the offense of Possession of a Controlled Substance; and 

### 12. Said Defendant did fail to pay his Community Supervision Fee as ordered and is currently $180.00 in arrears; and 13. Said Defendant did fail to pay the Costs of Court as ordered and is currently $30.00 in arrears; and

8

## 16. Said Defendant did fail to pay the reimbursement to Galveston County for compensation of appointed counsel as ordered and is currently $30.00 in arrears; and 

## 16A. Said Defendant did fail to pay Crime Stoppers Program payment as ordered and is currently $25.00 in arrears; and 19. Said Defendant did fail to pay $10.00 to reimburse for the costs of drug/alcohol screening; and 40. Said Defendant was in possession of a machete." 

## On October 20, 2014 the State of Texas by and through her Criminal District Attorney a Second Amended Motion to Adjudicate Guilt-Revoke Community Supervision, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit "B", changing item la. of its first motion to read: 

## "la. On or about the 24'^ ^ay of January, 2014, in Brazoria County, Texas, said Defendant, Robert Eugene Pryor, did then and there commit the offense of Theft of Property >=$50.00<$500.00; and". On December 15,2014 contested hearing was had on the State's amended motion. Appellant entered pleas of "True" to all of the State's 

## allegations, except lb and 40, to which he entered pleas of "false" and "not true" respectively. After hearing the Trial Court found true all of the State's allegations, except allegations lb and 40, which it found to be

9

### not true. Correlatively; the Court found that because of his incarceration 

## in the Brazoria County Jail, Appellant didn't have the ability to pay the fees cited in the State's motions (Alleged violations Nos. 12,13,16,16A and 19]. 

## The Court sentenced Appellant to serve eighteen years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

1 0S U M M A R Y O F T H E A R G U M E N T S 

### In its Judgment Adjudicating Guilt, the 405*^ Judicial District Court should have entered explicitly that there had been no affirmative finding of a deadly weapon in Appellant's case, rather than the entry of "N/A" in the Judgment.

1 1F I R S T A R G U M E N T 

### THE TRIAL COURT SHOULD HAVE EXPLICITLY ENTERED THAT THERE



## An integral and indispensible part of the Texas Parole scheme is 

## the possibility of parole for a person convicted of most felony crimes. The operation, timing and possibility of parole depends on the offense 

## for which the inmate was convicted, the sentence which was imposed, and upon the behavior of the inmate while in prison. For the offense of aggravated robbery the availability of parole and the portion of the 

## sentence which must be served before an inmate becomes eligible for parole depends upon whether the convicted inmate "used or exhibited a 

## deadly weapon during the commission of a felony offense or during immediate flight therefrom". Article 42.12, Sec. 3f (a392}, V.A.C.C.P. The major, if not the sole, mechanism for transmitting this
information to the Texas Board of Pardons and Parole is contained 

## within the Judgment (In Appellant's case since this was a hearing on the State's Motion to Adjudicate Guilt-Revoke Community Supervision and the State's Second Amended Motion to Adjudicate Guilt-Revoke Community in which Appellant was adjudicated guilty this information

1 2

## was transmitted in the Order of Deferred Adjudication and the 

## Judgment Adjudicating Guilt). This document should convey to the Institutional Division whether there was an affirmative finding of a deadly weapon. 

## There are numerous cases defining and requiring the explicitness of a finding of a deadly weapon. "The purpose of the deadly weapon finding is to assist in calculating a prisoner's parole eligibility date." Kinkade v. State, 184 S.W. 3d 929 at 930 (Tex. App.-Waco 2006, no pet). In Brooks. Ex Parte Brooks, 722 S.W. 2d 140 (Court of Grim. App. December 1986), the court cited Fann v. State, 702 S.W. 2d 602 (Tex. Grim. App. 1986) as stating that the trial court had the authority to make an affirmative finding of a deadly weapon when the court is the trier of the facts in the punishment phase, and cites Polk v. State, 693 

## S.W. 2d 391 (Tex. Grim. App. 1985) as delineating the proper methods of making an affirmative finding. 

## Polk requires that when a jury is the trier of facts the Court may not properly enter a finding that it has made an affirmative finding of a deadly weapon during the commission of the offense unless:

1 3

## 1. The indictment by allegation specifically places the issue before the trier of fact; or 

## 2. The matter of a deadly weapon arises as a matter of 

## law (i.e., a pistol is a deadly weapon as a matter per se); or 

## 3. The trier of fact is presented with and responds in the affirmative to a special issue regarding the defendant's use or exhibition of a deadly weapon or firearm during the commission of the offense. It appears from the record that the trial court intended that there 

## be no affirmative finding of a deadly weapon. Appellant's counsel made the following inquiry; "MR. SAENZ: To be clear Judge, since the original judgment does not reflect finding of a weapon, the current judgment does not reflect that?" (R.R. Vol. 1. P. 110) To which there was the response:
THE COURT: "It does not. 

### MR. SAENZ: Okay. THE COURT: Yes. Mr. Henderson changed that. So there's a --it's an N/A finding on the deadly weapon, which was how it was

### reflected in the previous order of deferred adjudication." (R.R. Vol. tp.llO)



### However, there was some discussion by the trial court as to the effect that entry of "N/A" would have on the time that Appellant would serve on his sentence before he became eligible for parole. The Court in its sentencing address to Appellant said: 

### THE COURT: "All right. Then I'm going to sign the judgment. All right. And, Mr. Pryor, previously we mentioned that you may only need to serve a quarter of the time; but that's actually unclear because there was no - in the underlying paperwork there was no appropriate affirmative finding of a deadly weapon on that; and, therefore, this judgment adjudicating guilt does not have a finding of a deadly weapon. So there's a debate as to whether or not that means you'll be eligible for parole after a quarter of the time based on good-conduct time or whether or not you'll have to serve half the time before you would be eligible." (R.R. Vol. 1, pp. 109,110)

1 5

## The statute does not require any specific wording or terminology when making a finding that a deadly weapon was used. Travelstead v. State, 693 S.W. 2d 400, 402 (Tex. Crim. App. 1985). Appellant is not contending that the trial court did not have the 

## authority to make an affirmative finding of a deadly weapon, nor that the trial court made an improper finding that no deadly weapon was used in the offense for which he was adjudicated guilty. Rather, 

## Appellant contends that the entry of "N/A" in the area of the Judgment Adjudicating Guilt captioned "Findings on Deadly Weapon" will be confusing to the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of 

## Criminal Justice or the Parole Board in their determination of the timing for Appellant's eligibility for parole. It will leave them in doubt as to whether there was no affirmative finding of a deadly weapon in Appellant's case. 

## If the trial court had entered "yes" or any positive indicator as to whether the court had made an affirmative finding, or if it had entered "no" or any negative indicator, parole authorities would be able to 

## determine how to process Appellant insofar as the timing of his eligibility for parole is concerned. The Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice or the Parole Board or the Parole

1 6

## Board should not have to guess what the trial court meant by its entry of
"N/A". 

## The trial court should be ordered to reform the judgment to conform with its decision at the time of the hearing.

In Asberry v. State, 813 S.W. 2d 526 at 531 (Tex. App.-Dallas 1991, pet. Ref d.) the court stated, citing Ex Parte Thomas, 638 S.W. 2d 905, 

## 907 (Tex. Crim. App. 1984] the trier of fact is responsible for making the 

## affirmative finding concerning the use or exhibition of a deadly weapon. CitingAdams v. State, 685 S.W. 2d 661, 671 (Tex. Crim. App. 1985} "If the jury was the trier of facts the affirmative finding must be made by the jury." 

## In Asberry Court further held that an appellate court had the 

## authority to reform a judgment to include an affirmative finding to make the record speak the truth when the matter is called to attention 

## by any source. Appellate courts may reform may judgment deleting an affirmative finding when it has been improperly entered. Travelstead v. State, 693 S.W. 2d 400, 402 (Tex. Crim. App. 1985. In Guerrero v. State, 299 S.W. 3d 487, a case in which the trial 

## court initially deferred adjudication and placed the defendant on

1 7

### community supervision, the Court stated "From this, one could 

## reasonably deduce that it initially intended to withhold entry of an affirmative finding relating to the use of a deadly weapon. And it had the discretion to retain such intent while assessing punishment after adjudicating him guilty of the crime. So, the trial court's inscribing "N/A" in the judgment under the label "Findings on Deadly Weapon" may not have been a mere clerical error, as suggested by the State. It may well have been the exercise of a legitimate judicial discretion, which, in turn, 

## prevents us from modifying the document to include a deadly weapon finding." 

## Because the entry by the trial court of "N/A" in the judgment may have been the exercise of legitimate judicial discretion of the court, the 

## appellate route is the only path presently available to Appellant. The trial court should be ordered to reform the judgment to conform with its decision at the time of the hearing. Appellant requests this Court order the reformation of the 

## Judgment Adjudicating Guilt in this case to explicitly state that no deadly was used or involved in this offense, eliminating the term "N/A" from the judgment.

1 8PRAYER 

### The 405^^ Judicial District Court committed error when it failed to 

## explicitly enter into its judgment that there had been no finding of a deadly weapon in Appellant's case. For these reasons and for the arguments contained herein. 

## Appellant prays that, upon review and hearing hereof, this Court will remand this case and require that the Trial Court explicitly enter into the Judgment Adjudicating Guilt that there was no finding of a deadly weapon, and delete the entry of "N/A" presently appearing in the Judgment, and for all such other and further relief at law and in equity, to which Appellant may show himself justly entitled. Respectfully submitted,
