Crystal Keimoni Daniel, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee
10-24-00154-CR
Court of Appeals Tenth Appellate District of Texas
March 20, 2025
JUSTICE HARRIS
On appeal from the 278th District Court of Walker County, Texas; Judge Hal R. Ridley, presiding; Trial Court Cause No. 31355
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Crystal Keimoni Daniel was convicted of Aggravated Assault with a Deadly Weapon, see
Daniel‘s appointed counsel filed a motion to withdraw and an Anders brief in support of the motion asserting that he has diligently reviewed the appellate record and that, in his opinion, the appeal is frivolous. See Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S. Ct. 1396, 18 L. Ed. 2d 493 (1967).
In reviewing an Anders appeal, we must, “after a full examination of all the proceedings, ... decide whether the case is wholly frivolous.” Anders, 386 U.S. at 744; see Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80, 109 S. Ct. 346, 102 L. Ed. 2d 300 (1988); accord Stafford v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 509-11 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). An appeal is “wholly frivolous” or “without merit” when it “lacks any basis in law or fact.” McCoy v. Court of Appeals, 486 U.S. 429, 439 n. 10, 108 S. Ct. 1895, 100 L. Ed. 2d 440 (1988). In our review, we have paid particular attention to the issues identified in Daniel‘s pro se response to her counsel‘s brief in support of the motion to withdraw. After a review of the entire record in this appeal, we have determined the appeal to be wholly frivolous. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826-27 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). Accordingly, we affirm the trial court‘s judgment.
