Court of Appeals
                         Sixth Appellate District of Texas

                                   JUDGMENT

Reginald Reece, Appellant                            Appeal from the 5th District Court of
                                                     Bowie County, Texas (Tr. Ct. No.
No. 06-22-00026-CR          v.                       21F0725-005).       Opinion delivered by
                                                     Justice van Cleef, Chief Justice Stevens and
The State of Texas, Appellee
                                                     Justice Rambin participating.

       As stated in the Court’s opinion of this date, we find reversible error in the judgment of
the court below. While we affirm Reece’s conviction, we reverse the trial court’s judgment
because it contains an illegal sentence, and we remand the case to the trial court for a new
punishment trial.
       We note that the appellant, Reginald Reece, has adequately indicated his inability to pay
costs of appeal. Therefore, we waive payment of costs.

                                                     RENDERED APRIL 27, 2023
                                                     BY ORDER OF THE COURT
                                                     SCOTT E. STEVENS
