LESLIE GARCIA MENDEZ, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 268th District Court

Fort Bend County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 48,137

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant was convicted of the offense of theft. On October 27, 2008, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for eight years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.

On May 21, 2009, this court ordered a hearing to determine why appellant=s counsel had not filed a brief in this appeal.  On June 22, 2009, the trial court conducted the hearing.  The record of the hearing was filed in this court on June 23, 2009.

The trial court found appellant no longer desires to prosecute her appeal.  On the basis of those findings, this court has considered the appeal without briefs.  See Tex. R. App. P. 38.8(b).  We find no fundamental error.

Accordingly, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.

PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Justices Seymore, Brown, and Sullivan.
