                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                   Before Justices Molberg, Reichek, and Smith
                            Opinion by Justice Smith
      A jury convicted appellant Quincy Reshawn Gilstrap of aggravated robbery,

and the trial court assessed appellant’s punishment at sixty years’ confinement. In

four issues, appellant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his

conviction and several of the trial court’s evidentiary rulings. The State brings a

cross-issue to correct an error in the trial court’s judgment. We modify the judgment

and affirm the judgment as modified.
                            Factual and Procedural Background1

         At approximately 11 a.m. on February 27, 2021, a man wearing a face mask,

dark hoodie, and yellow reflective vest entered a Metro by T-Mobile store on

Mockingbird Lane in Dallas. The man approached store manager Shanawaz Khoja,

pointed a black revolver at Khoja, and ordered him to get on his knees. The man

then ordered Khoja into a back office and made him lie face down on the floor. A

second man, wearing a face mask, light gray Nike hoodie, and jeans with two

distinctive holes in each leg, entered the store and emptied the cash register. The

second man then went into the back office, where he pulled out a black and silver

semiautomatic handgun and pointed it at Khoja. The men removed cellphones and

a tablet from a safe and placed them into a black drawstring bag. They ordered

Khoja to wait by the store’s rear exit until they left.

         Surveillance footage showed a blue Ford Escape driving back and forth in

front of the store for about thirty minutes before the robbery.                         Dallas Police

detectives, working on the FBI Violent Crimes Task Force, learned that the same

vehicle had been captured on surveillance video at the scene of a similar robbery at

a Metro by T-Mobile store in Garland on February 21, 2021. Both robberies were

committed in the daytime by two men wearing face masks and hoods. In both

robberies, one of the men (Suspect 1) wore a yellow reflective vest and entered the

store first, followed a short time later by the other man (Suspect 2). Suspect 1

appeared to wear the same dark hoodie in both robberies. In each robbery, the store

employee was taken to the back office and then ordered to wait in the rear of the

store until the suspects had left. In each robbery, the suspects stole cell phones from

the store’s safe, and Suspect 2 took money from the cash register.

      Searching license-plate records, detectives identified a 2011 Ford Escape

matching the description of the vehicle seen on surveillance video at the Dallas and

Garland robberies registered to appellant and his wife, Inderpreet Kaur. The last two

numbers of that Escape’s license plate matched a partial license-plate number seen

on the Escape in the video from the Garland robbery. Police obtained a warrant to

place a GPS tracking device on the Escape and, on February 28, a detective located

the Escape at a North Dallas bar where the girlfriend of appellant’s half-brother,

Markeis Williams, worked. The detective followed the Escape to a Hyatt hotel in

Garland, where he was able to place the tracker on the Escape.

      Later that morning, an FBI agent conducting surveillance at the Hyatt saw a

couple, whom he recognized from their driver license photos as appellant and Kaur,

get into the Escape and drive to a convenience store. Surveillance cameras captured

appellant getting out of the Escape and entering the store. He was wearing jeans that

appeared to be identical to the distinctive jeans worn by Suspect 2 during the Dallas

robbery.

                                         –3–
      Hotel records showed that appellant was staying at the Hyatt at the time of

both robberies. Surveillance video from the Hyatt lobby on the morning of February

27 showed a man wearing the same shoes, hoodie, and distinctive jeans worn by

Suspect 2 during the Dallas robbery. Video footage recorded approximately three

hours after the robbery showed the same man entering the hotel with another man,

who was wearing a dark hoodie that was consistent with the hoodie worn by Suspect

1 in the robbery. The second man was carrying a dark drawstring bag that resembled

a drawstring bag used during the robbery. Hyatt surveillance video from February

21 showed a man leaving the hotel at around 11:20 a.m., wearing what appeared to

be the same clothing Suspect 2 was wearing during the Garland robbery later that

afternoon.   From their investigation, detectives concluded that Williams and

appellant were Suspects 1 and 2, respectively.

      On March 4, appellant’s Escape was tracked traveling from Kansas to Dallas.

A Dallas Police fugitive officer later located the Escape near Williams’s apartment

in Dallas. The officer saw appellant and Kaur get out of the vehicle and go inside a

convenience store. The next day, detectives discovered that someone had removed

the tracking device from the Escape.

      On March 10, arrest warrants were issued for appellant, Williams, and Kaur,

and search warrants were issued for their residences and the Escape. Officers found

the Escape parked in the garage of appellant’s and Kaur’s home in Wichita, Kansas.

Inside the home, officers found clothing that matched the clothing worn by Suspect

                                        –4–
2 during the Dallas and Garland robberies. Inside the Escape’s trunk, officers found

a yellow reflective vest that looked like the vest Suspect 1 wore in both robberies.

The search of Williams’s apartment yielded several more reflective vests, a pair of

boots that appeared to be the same boots worn by Suspect 1 in the Garland robbery,

and a .38 revolver that appeared to be the same revolver used by Suspect 1 in both

robberies. The gun used by Suspect 2 was never found.

      Police also seized cellphones belonging to appellant, Kaur, and Williams.

Data extracted from Kaur’s and Williams’s phones showed that, approximately three

hours before the Dallas robbery, Williams texted Kaur, “It’s time to wake up and

clock in.” Shortly after the robbery, appellant texted Kaur that he had “[j]ust paid

the phone bill,” and, within the following thirty minutes, appellant texted Kaur:

“Bout to check this bill it’s a little high so we trying to get a refund”; “[W]e checking

something out really quick . . . give me til bro come out of here and I’ll let you know

something”; and “Okay we price checking real quick.” One of the lead detectives

investigating the robbery testified that he believed appellant’s texts referred to the

robbery and “scouting another area.”

      Data obtained from Williams’s cellphone showed that, while appellant was

texting Kaur, Williams was Googling LG tablets and, more specifically, Metro by

T-Mobile LG tablets. Williams also visited a website called IMEI.info, where he

                                          –5–
looked up an IMEI number2 that matched the IMEI number of a tablet stolen from

the Dallas store. Later that afternoon, Williams Googled “metro pcs news dallas,”

“metro by mobile robberies,” “metro by mobile robberies dallas,” and “local

robberies in Dallas.” On March 5, the day the tracking device was removed from

the Escape, Williams Googled “yorkie tracking device disguise,” “gps device serial

look up,” “gps tracker disguise,” “gps tracker covert,” and “remote tracking device

on my car.”

         Call detail and timing advance records also showed activity consistent with

appellant’s and Williams’s cellphones being in the area of the Garland store at the

time of the February 21 robbery and the Dallas store at the time of the February 27

robbery. Appellant’s cellphone activity was consistent with his cellphone being in

the vicinity of the Hyatt during the times Suspect 2 appeared on the Hyatt’s

surveillance video on February 21 and 27; Williams’s cellphone activity was

consistent with his cellphone being in the vicinity of the Hyatt on February 27 when

Suspect 1 appeared on the surveillance video.

        The State charged appellant by indictment with the February 27 aggravated

robbery at the Dallas Metro by T-Mobile store. After hearing the evidence and

argument of counsel, a jury found appellant guilty of the offense. Following a

hearing, the trial court assessed punishment and, finding two enhancement

paragraphs in the indictment to be true, sentenced appellant to sixty years’

confinement.

                             Sufficiency of the Evidence

      In his first issue, appellant contends that the evidence is legally insufficient to

show that he committed the offense of aggravated robbery. Specifically, he asserts

there is insufficient evidence to identify him as the perpetrator of the offense.

      When reviewing the legal sufficiency of the evidence, we consider “whether,

after viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the [State], any rational trier

of fact could have found the essential elements of the crime beyond a reasonable

doubt.” Murray v. State, 457 S.W.3d 446, 448 (Tex. Crim. App. 2015) (quoting

Jackson v. Virginia, 443 U.S. 307, 319 (1979)). The factfinder resolves conflicts in

the testimony, weighs the evidence, and draws reasonable inferences from basic to

ultimate facts. Jackson, 443 U.S. at 319; Isassi v. State, 330 S.W.3d 633, 638 (Tex.

Crim. App. 2010). “Each fact need not point directly and independently to the guilt

of a defendant, as long as the cumulative force of all the incriminating circumstances

is sufficient to support the conviction.” Walker v. State, 594 S.W.3d 330, 335 (Tex.

Crim. App. 2020). “When the record supports conflicting inferences, we presume

that the factfinder resolved the conflicts in favor of the [State] and therefore defer to

that determination.” Murray, 457 S.W.3d at 448–49.

       We measure the sufficiency of the evidence by the elements of the offense as

defined by a hypothetically correct jury charge. Malik v. State, 953 S.W.2d 234, 240

                                          –7–
(Tex. Crim. App. 1997). A hypothetically correct jury charge is “one that accurately

sets out the law, is authorized by the indictment, does not unnecessarily increase the

State’s burden of proof or unnecessarily restrict the State’s theories of liability, and

adequately describes the particular offense for which the defendant was tried.” Id.

      A person commits aggravated robbery if, in the course of committing theft

and with intent to obtain or maintain control of that property, he intentionally or

knowingly threatens or places another in fear of imminent bodily injury and uses or

exhibits a deadly weapon. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. §§ 29.02(a)(2), 29.03(a)(2).

A person commits theft if he unlawfully appropriates property with intent to deprive

the owner of it. Id. § 31.03(a).

      Contending that the evidence of his identity was insufficient, appellant directs

the Court to the lack of eyewitness identification and fingerprint evidence and the

fact that police never located Suspect 2’s gun. The State, however, may prove

identity “by direct evidence, circumstantial evidence, or by reasonable inferences

from the evidence.” Ingerson v. State, 559 S.W.3d 501, 509 (Tex. Crim. App. 2018)

(citing Gardner v. State, 306 S.W.3d 274, 285 (Tex. Crim. App. 2009)). A lack of

direct evidence is not dispositive of the issue of guilt. Jenkins v. State, 493 S.W.3d

583, 599 (Tex. Crim. App. 2016). “Circumstantial evidence is as probative as direct

evidence in establishing guilt, and circumstantial evidence alone can be sufficient.”

Id.

                                          –8–
      Here, the jury could reasonably infer from the evidence linking appellant to

the robbery that he was Suspect 2. Someone was driving appellant’s Escape back

and forth in front of the Dallas Metro by T-Mobile store for about thirty minutes

before the February 27, 2021 robbery, and a detective testified that she believed

whoever was in the car was surveilling the store. Suspect 2 entered the store wearing

the same Nike hoodie, distinctive jeans, and shoes that appellant was wearing when

he left the Hyatt a few hours earlier. Appellant wore the same clothing when he

returned to the Hyatt about three hours after the robbery with another man who was

dressed like Suspect 1 and carrying a drawstring bag like the bag used during the

robbery. Surveillance video showed that appellant also was wearing the same

distinctive jeans the next day when he drove his Escape from the Hyatt to a

convenience store. Police later found the Nike hoodie and jeans in appellant’s house

and a yellow vest like the vest Suspect 1 wore in the robbery in the Escape’s trunk.

Cellphone records placed appellant and Williams in the area of the Dallas Metro by

T-Mobile store at the time of the robbery. Just after the robbery, Williams was

researching Metro by T-Mobile LG tablets and the IMEI number of a tablet taken

from the Dallas store and appellant was texting messages to Kaur that the jury

reasonably could believe related to the robbery.

      Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the State, we conclude

that any rational factfinder could have found that appellant was Suspect 2 and was

                                        –9–
guilty of aggravated robbery beyond a reasonable doubt. See Murray, 457 S.W.3d

at 448; Ingerson, 559 S.W.3d at 509. We overrule appellant’s first issue.

                                Evidentiary Rulings

      In his second, third, and fourth issues, appellant challenges the trial court’s

rulings admitting (1) evidence of the February 21, 2021 robbery of the Garland

Metro by T-Mobil store, (2) statements made by the Garland robbery victim

recorded by a responding officer’s body camera, and (3) photographs from a

Facebook Marketplace listing for a blue 2011 Ford Escape.

      We review a trial court’s ruling on the admissibility of evidence for an abuse

of discretion. Tienda v. State, 358 S.W.3d 633, 638 (Tex. Crim. App. 2012); Casey

v. State, 215 S.W.3d 870, 879 (Tex. Crim. App. 2007). “A trial court abuses its

discretion when its decision lies outside the zone of reasonable disagreement.”

Casey, 215 S.W.3d at 879.        The erroneous admission of evidence generally

constitutes non-constitutional error and is reviewed under Texas Rule of Appellate

Procedure 44.2(b). Gonzalez v. State, 544 S.W.3d 363, 373 (Tex. Crim. App. 2018).

Under Rule 44.2(b), we disregard any non-constitutional “error, defect, irregularity,

or variance that does not affect [the defendant’s] substantial rights.” TEX. R. APP. P.

44.2(b).

1.    Garland Robbery

      In his second issue, appellant contends that admission of evidence related to

the February 21, 2021 robbery of the Garland store violated Texas Rules of Evidence

                                        –10–
404(b) and 403. Appellant asserts that (1) the evidence lacked relevance other than

to show his bad character for associating with Williams, and (2) the probative value

of the evidence was substantially outweighed by the risk of unfair prejudice to him.

       Evidence of a “crime, wrong, or other act” is inadmissible to prove a person’s

character if it is relevant solely to show that the person acted on a particular occasion

in accordance with the person’s character. TEX. R. EVID. 404(b)(1); Powell v. State,

63 S.W.3d 435, 438 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001). Such evidence may be admissible,

however, when it is relevant to a fact of consequence and is not offered to show

character conformity. TEX. R. EVID. 404(b)(2) (evidence of other crimes, wrongs,

or acts “may be admissible for other purposes, such as proving motive, opportunity,

intent, preparation, plan, knowledge, identity, absence of mistake or lack of

accident”); Powell, 63 S.W.3d at 438. Thus, a party may introduce evidence of an

extraneous offense if the evidence “logically serves to make more or less probable

an elemental fact, an evidentiary fact that inferentially leads to an elemental fact, or

defensive evidence that undermines an elemental fact.” Martin v. State, 173 S.W.3d

463, 466 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).          Whether extraneous offense evidence has

relevance apart from character conformity, as required by Rule 404(b), is a question

for the trial court. Id.

       Under Rule 403, even relevant evidence may be excluded if its probative value

is substantially outweighed by, among other things, the danger of unfair prejudice.

TEX. R. EVID. 403; Martin, 173 S.W.3d at 465. “Unfair prejudice refers not to an

                                         –11–
adverse or detrimental effect of evidence but to an undue tendency to suggest a

decision on an improper basis, commonly an emotional one.” Casey, 215 S.W.3d at

883. A Rule 403 analysis generally balances four non-exclusive factors: (1) the

probative strength of the evidence; (2) the potential of the evidence to impress the

jury in some irrational but nevertheless indelible way; (3) the time the proponent

needs to develop the evidence; and (4) the proponent’s need for the evidence.

Colone v. State, 573 S.W.3d 249, 266 (Tex. Crim. App. 2019).

      Before trial testimony began, the trial court held a hearing outside the jury’s

presence to determine the admissibility of evidence regarding the February 21

robbery at the Garland store and a January 24 robbery at another Metro by T-Mobile

store in Richardson. Dallas Police Detective Stephen Prince testified that he was

one of the detectives investigating a string of aggravated robberies committed

between January 24 and March 8 or 9, 2021. Prince described how investigators had

traced a Ford Escape seen at many of the robberies to appellant and Kaur and how

that discovery and further investigation led police to identify appellant, Williams,

and Kaur as suspects in the robberies. The State argued that evidence of the Garland

and Richardson robberies was relevant and admissible to the issue of identity

because there was no eyewitness who could identify appellant as a perpetrator of the

Dallas robbery. Appellant argued that there were differences between the offenses,

the State sought to show “guilt by association” by proving that Williams, appellant’s

half-brother, was involved in the robberies, and the evidence would be more

                                       –12–
prejudicial than probative. The trial court ruled that only the Garland robbery, which

shared more similar characteristics with the Dallas robbery, was admissible and,

because of the shared characteristics, the evidence on the Garland robbery was more

probative on the issue of identity than prejudicial.

      A defendant’s modus operandi is his “distinctive and idiosyncratic manner of

committing criminal acts.” Casey, 215 S.W.3d at 880–81. It is an exception to the

general rule excluding extraneous-offense evidence if it tends to prove a material

fact at issue, other than propensity. Id. Evidence of remarkably similar acts may

be admissible to prove, among other things, identity. See id.; Guo v. State, No. 05-

19-01178-CR, 2022 WL 224815, at *13 (Tex. App.—Dallas Jan. 26, 2022, pet.

ref’d). “No rigid rules dictate what constitutes sufficient similarities; rather, the

common characteristics may be proximity in time and place, mode of commission

of the crimes, the person’s dress, or any other elements which mark both crimes as

having been committed by the same person.” Guo, 2022 WL 224815, at *13

(quoting Segundo v. State, 270 S.W.3d 79, 88 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008)).

      Here, the record supports the trial court’s ruling that the evidence of the

Garland robbery was relevant modus operandi evidence. Both robberies took place

at Metro by T-Mobile stores in Dallas County six days apart. Both robberies

occurred during the day when only one employee and no customers were present. A

Ford Escape linked to appellant was outside both stores before the robberies

occurred. Both robberies were committed by two men who wore face masks and

                                         –13–
hoods. In both robberies, (1) the suspect wearing a yellow reflective vest entered

first, brandished a revolver, and was followed a short time later by a second suspect,

(2) the second suspect removed money from the cash register, (3) the suspects forced

the victim into the store’s back office, where they took electronics from a safe, and

(4) the suspects ordered the victim to wait in the rear of the store while they left.

      Because the two robberies shared striking similarities, we conclude evidence

related to the Garland robbery was relevant to appellant’s modus operandi and

identity and was not offered to show character conformity. See Ransom v. State, 503

S.W.2d 810, 813 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974) (offenses sufficiently similar when both

offenses were robberies committed at gunpoint, defendant was aided by confederate,

and offenses occurred in same area three days apart); Poullard v. State, 833 S.W.2d

273, 276–77 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1992, pet. ref’d) (offenses sufficiently

similar when both were robberies of jewelry and money from cash register

committed with revolver in same geographic area, four days apart, against lone

female victim working in small store). Accordingly, the trial court did not abuse its

discretion when it determined that the evidence was admissible. See TEX. R. EVID.

404(b)(2).

      We further conclude that the offenses’ similarities support the trial court’s

determination that the probative value of the Garland robbery evidence was not

substantially outweighed by the danger of unfair prejudice. The evidence was highly

probative on the disputed issue of appellant’s identity. Khoja was unable to identify

                                         –14–
appellant, so the State had a strong need for the evidence to prove its case. Several

witnesses testified about the Garland robbery because it and the Dallas robbery were

subjects of the same investigation, but the evidence was neither excessive nor of the

type that might lead the jury to make an irrational or emotional decision. Further,

the trial court instructed the jury not to consider evidence regarding appellant’s

having committed an extraneous offense for any purpose unless it found beyond a

reasonable doubt that appellant committed the extraneous offense and, even then, to

consider the evidence only “in determining the motive, opportunity, intent,

preparation, plan, knowledge, identity, absence of mistake, or state of mind of the

defendant, if any, and for no other purpose.” On this record, we conclude the trial

court did not abuse its discretion in determining that the probative value of the

evidence was not outweighed by a danger of unfair prejudice. See, e.g., Heigelmann

v. State, 362 S.W.3d 763, 772–73 (Tex. App.—Texarkana 2012, pet. ref’d)

(evidence of extraneous robberies was not more prejudicial than probative where

evidence was probative of identity due to similarities between offenses, identity was

strongly contested, State lacked direct proof of identity, and trial court gave limiting

instruction). We overrule appellant’s second issue.

2.    Statements on Body Camera Recording

      In his third issue, appellant contends the trial court erred in overruling his

hearsay objection to statements by the Garland robbery victim that were recorded by

a responding officer’s body camera. Appellant asserts the evidence did not meet

                                         –15–
the excited utterance exception to the hearsay rule because the statements were

“simply a narrative of past acts or events” and “made in response to direct specific

questions that were calculated to elicit the type of responses given.”

      Hearsay, a statement made outside of court and offered into evidence to prove

the truth of the matter asserted, is generally inadmissible. TEX. R. EVID. 801(d).

Hearsay is admissible under an exception for excited utterances when it “relat[es] to

a startling event or condition, made while the declarant was under the stress of

excitement that it caused.” Id. 803(2). “The exception is based on the assumption

that the declarant is not, at the time of the statement, capable of the kind of reflection

that would enable him to fabricate information.” Apolinar v. State, 155 S.W.3d 184,

186–87 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). In considering whether a statement is an excited

utterance, the trial court must determine whether the declarant was still dominated

by the emotions, fear, excitement, or pain of the event at the time of the statement.

Id.; Zuliani v. State, 97 S.W.3d 589, 596 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003). Factors the court

may consider include “the length of time between the occurrence and the statement,

the nature of the declarant, whether the statement is made in response to a question,

and whether the statement is self-serving.” Apolinar, 155 S.W.3d at 187.

      Garland Police Officer Matthew Habecker testified that he was on patrol on

February 21, 2021. He was wearing a body camera at the time. He received a call

about the Garland robbery and arrived at the store “within a few minutes.” He spoke

with the victim, Prajwol Dahal, and described Dahal as excited, scared, and nervous.

                                          –16–
Dahal spoke quickly during their encounter and needed to smoke a cigarette to calm

himself.    Habecker recalled asking Dahal questions, and Dahal answering.

Appellant objected to the admission of Dahal’s statements, but the trial court

concluded the statements fell within the excited utterance exception and overruled

the objection. The State published the body camera footage, and Habecker narrated.

The footage shows Habecker making an initial contact with Dahal and then taking a

few minutes to secure the area. Habecker then spoke with Dahal, who provided

details about the robbery. Dahal was clearly upset.

      The fact that several of Dahal’s statements were in response to questions by

Habecker was one of the factors for the trial court to consider in its excited utterance

analysis. See Zuliani, 97 S.W.3d at 596. However, Habecker’s testimony and the

body camera footage showed that Dahal was in an agitated state and his statements,

made very shortly after being robbed at gunpoint, were not self-serving. See

Apolinar, 155 S.W.3d at 190–91; White v. State, No. 01-20-00238-CR, 2022 WL

2674214, at *7 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] July 12, 2022, no pet.) (mem. op.,

not designated for publication) (no error in admitting body camera footage of witness

statements responding to police questioning as excited utterances where officer

described witness as emotional, sweating, and unable to stand still). Accordingly,

we conclude the trial court did not abuse its discretion in finding that Dahal was still

dominated by the emotions of the robbery when he made the statements and

                                         –17–
overruling appellant’s hearsay objection to Dahal’s statements.           We overrule

appellant’s third issue.

3.    Facebook Marketplace Listing

      In his fourth issue, appellant contends the trial court erred in admitting into

evidence pages of a Facebook Marketplace listing for a blue 2011 Ford Escape.

Detective Prince testified that, after obtaining a search warrant, he identified a

Facebook Marketplace listing for a Ford Escape that he was able to link to Kaur.

The State offered screenshots of the listing containing photographs of the interior

and exterior of the vehicle, and appellant objected that a proper predicate had not

been laid. The trial court overruled the objection.

      Even assuming without deciding that it was error to admit the listing pages,

we conclude the error was harmless. We disregard any error that does not affect a

substantial right. See TEX. R. APP. P. 44.2(b). An error affects a substantial right

when it has “a substantial and injurious effect or influence in determining the jury’s

verdict.” Gonzalez, 544 S.W.3d at 373. If, after examining the record, we have fair

assurance that the error did not influence the jury or had but a slight effect, the error

did not affect the defendant’s substantial rights.        Id.   Further, the erroneous

admission of evidence is harmless error if other evidence proving the same facts is

properly admitted elsewhere or comes in elsewhere without objection. Sosa v. State,

No. 05-19-00868-CR, 2021 WL 1084639, at *4 (Tex. App.—Dallas Mar. 22, 2021,

pet. ref’d) (mem. op., not designated for publication); Matz v. State, 21 S.W.3d 911,

                                         –18–
912 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2000, pet. ref’d) (“It is well-established that the

improper admission of evidence does not constitute reversible error if the same facts

are proved by other properly admitted evidence.”).

      The State proffered the Facebook Marketplace listing to link appellant and

Kaur to the Ford Escape seen at both robberies. However, other properly admitted

evidence, including vehicle-registration records, also established that link.

Therefore, even assuming that it was error to admit the listing pages, the error was

harmless and, having considered the entire record, we conclude that it did not affect

a substantial right of appellant. See TEX. R. APP. P. 44.2(b); Sosa, 2021 WL

1084639, at *4. We overrule appellant’s fourth issue.

                            Modification of Judgment

      In a cross-point, the State requests that we modify the trial court’s judgment

to show that appellant pleaded not guilty to the indictment and not true to the

enhancement paragraphs. This Court has the power to modify incorrect judgments

when the necessary data and information is available to do so. TEX. R. APP. P.

43.2(b); Asberry v. State, 813 S.W.2d 526, 529 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1991, pet. ref’d).

Here, the record shows that appellant pleaded “not guilty” to the indictment and “not

true” to two enhancement paragraphs, but the trial court’s judgment reflects that he

pleaded “guilty” to the indictment and “true” to the enhancements. Accordingly, we

sustain the State’s cross-point and modify the trial court’s judgment to accurately

reflect that appellant entered a plea of not guilty to the aggravated robbery offense

                                       –19–
and not true to the indictment’s two enhancement paragraphs.     See Asberry, 813

S.W.2d at 529.

                                   Conclusion

      We modify the trial court’s judgment to reflect that appellant entered a plea

of not guilty to the charged aggravated robbery offense and not true to the two

enhancement paragraphs. We affirm the judgment as modified.
