Description:

Beaumont, Texas - Criminal defense attorney represented Matthew Turner Curry with a Aggravated Sexual Assault charge.



In an open plea, appellant Matthew Turner Curry pleaded guilty to aggravated
sexual assault of a child under six years of age. After conducting a sentencing
hearing, the trial court assessed Curry’s punishment at life in prison.
Curry’s appellate counsel filed an Anders brief that presents counsel’s
professional evaluation of the record and concludes that the appeal is frivolous. See
Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967); High v. State, 573 S.W.2d 807 (Tex.
2
Crim. App. 1978). On September 14, 2020, we granted an extension of time for
Curry to file a pro se brief. We received no response from Curry.

Outcome: We reviewed the appellate record, and we agree with counsel’s conclusion
that no arguable issues support the appeal. Therefore, we find it unnecessary to order appointment of new counsel to re-brief the appeal.

We affirm the trial court’s judgment.1
