THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 35th District Court Brown County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. CR26089 MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant, Isaac Levi Bill, pled guilty in 2019 to the second-degree felony offense of possession of a controlled substance, tetrahydrocannabinol, in an amount of four grams or more but less than 400 grams. See TEX. HEALTH & SAFETY CODE ANN. §§ 481.103(a)(1), .116(d) (West Supp. 2024). Pursuant to the terms of a negotiated plea agreement between Appellant and the State, the trial court deferred finding Appellant guilty and placed him on deferred adjudication community supervision for a period of ten years. Appellant was subsequently indicted in cause number CR27711 for committing the second-degree felony offense of sexual assault of a child on April 20, 2020. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 22.011(a)(2) (West Supp. 2024). In June 2023, Appellant pled guilty to sexual assault and was placed on another ten-year period of deferred adjudication community supervision for that offense. See PENAL § 22.011(a)(1). Following Appellant’s arrest in November 2023 by the Stephenville Police Department for committing several new offenses, the State filed a motion in each case to adjudicate Appellant’s guilt and revoke his community supervision. On April 29, 2024, the trial court held a consolidated hearing on the State’s motions, during which Appellant pled “not true” to all allegations. The State called ten witnesses, then Appellant and his mother testified. The trial court, after finding several allegations in each motion to be “true,” adjudicated Appellant guilty of possession of a controlled substance in cause number CR26089 and sexual assault in cause number CR27711.1 The trial court revoked Appellant’s community supervision and assessed his punishment for the second-degree felony drug possession at imprisonment for five years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, to run concurrently with his twenty-year prison sentence imposed in cause number CR27711 for sexual assault. Appellant’s court-appointed counsel has filed a motion to withdraw in this court. The motion is supported by a brief in which counsel professionally and conscientiously examines the record and applicable law and concludes that there are no arguable issues to present on appeal.

Counsel also advised Appellant of his right to review the record and file a response to counsel’s brief, and of his right to file a petition for discretionary review. See TEX. R. APP. P. 68.

Following the procedures outlined in Anders and Schulman, we have independently reviewed the record, and likewise conclude that the appeal is without merit. See Anders, 386 U.S. at 744; Bledsoe v. State, 178 S.W.3d 824, 826–27 & n.6 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
