Fourteenth Court of Appeals
NO. 14-22-00880-CR
WALTER JEROME GAMBLE, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 400th District Court
Fort Bend County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 21-DCR-094429
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant Walter Jerome Gamble appeals his conviction for evading arrest or
detention with a vehicle. See Tex. Penal Code § 38.04. Appellant’s appointed
counsel filed a brief in which she concludes the appeal is wholly frivolous and
without merit. The brief meets the requirements of Anders v. California, 386 U.S.
738 (1967), presenting a professional evaluation of the record and demonstrating
why there are no arguable grounds to be advanced. See High v. State, 573 S.W.2d
807 (Tex. Crim. App. 1978).
A copy of counsel’s brief was delivered to appellant. Appellant was advised
of the right to examine the appellate record and file a pro se response. See Stafford
v. State, 813 S.W.2d 503, 512 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991). At appellant’s request, the
record was provided to him. On June 26, 2024, appellant filed a pro se response to
counsel’s brief.
We have carefully reviewed the record, counsel’s brief, and appellant’s
response, and agree the appeal is wholly frivolous and without merit. Further, we
find no reversible error in the record. A discussion of the brief would add nothing to
the jurisprudence of the state. We are not to address the merits of each claim raised
in an Anders brief or a pro se response when we have determined there are no
arguable grounds for review. See Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 827–28 (Tex.
Crim. App. 2005).
Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
PER CURIAM
