IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

TYLER, TEXAS

ERIC GRIFFIN MOORE, § APPEAL FROM THE 145TH APPELLANT § JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

APPELLEE § NACOGDOCHES COUNTY, TEXAS MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

Eric Griffin Moore appeals his convictions of two counts of sexual assault of a child, for which he was sentenced to imprisonment for eighteen years for each offense. 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. B ACKGROUND

Appellant was charged by indictment with two counts of sexual assault of a child and pleaded “guilty” to each count. The matter proceeded to a punishment hearing. Ultimately, the trial court found Appellant “guilty” as charged and sentenced him to imprisonment for eighteen years for each offense. This appeal followed. NALYSIS P URSUANT TO NDERS V ALIFORNIA

Appellant’s counsel filed a brief in compliance with Anders v. California and Gainous v. State . Appellant’s counsel states that he has diligently reviewed the appellate record and is of the opinion that the record reflects no reversible error and that there is no error upon which an *2 appeal can be predicated. He further relates that he is well acquainted with the facts in this case. In compliance with Anders , Gainous , and High v. State , 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex. Crim. App. [Panel Op.] 1978), Appellant’s brief presents a chronological summation of the procedural history of the case and further states that Appellant’s counsel is unable to raise any arguable issues for appeal. We have likewise reviewed the record for reversible error and have found none. ONCLUSION

As required by Stafford v. State , 813 S.W.2d 503 (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 and finding no reversible error, we grant Appellant’s counsel’s motion for leave to withdraw and affirm the trial court’s judgment.

As a result of our disposition of this case, 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 T EX . R. A PP . P. 48.4; In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d at 411 n.35. Should Appellant wish to seek review of this case 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 petition for discretionary review pro se. Any petition for discretionary review must be filed within thirty days from the date of either this opinion or the last timely motion for rehearing that was overruled by this court. See T EX . R. PP . P. 68.2. Any petition for discretionary review must be filed with the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals. See T EX R. PP . P. 68.3(a). Any petition for discretionary review should comply with the requirements of Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 68.4. See In re Schulman , 252 S.W.3d at 408 n.22.

Opinion delivered July 31, 2015.
