TAMMY LEE DAVILA, Appellant
V.
STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 29th District Court
Palo Pinto County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 10,890
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Upon a plea of true to the State’s motion to adjudicate, the trial court adjudicated Tammy Lee Davila1 guilty of the offense of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The court assessed punishment at confinement for five years. We affirm. In her sole issue on appeal, appellant contends that the judgment should be reformed because the trial court failed to give her adequate credit for time served. The judgment indicates that
1 We note that appellant’s name on the indictment is “Tammy Lee Davila” and that appellant’s name on the judgment adjudicating guilt is “Tammy Gray Davila.” appellant received credit for 130 days. Appellant asserts that she should be given credit for additional time spent in jail for offenses committed after she was placed on deferred adjudication community supervision and before she was adjudicated guilty and sentenced in this case. Pursuant to TEX . CODE CRIM . PROC. ANN . art. 42.03, § 2(a) (Vernon Supp. 2008), a court shall give credit for time spent “in jail for the case.” The record does not show that the intervening incarcerations were for this aggravated assault case but, rather, were for separate offenses: a driving while intoxicated offense in Navarro County and a theft offense in Tarrant County. Thus, the record does not support appellant’s contention, and we cannot determine from this record that appellant is entitled to the additional credit. See Steinocher v. State, 127 S.W.3d 160, 163 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2003, pet. dism’d, untimely filed). Appellant’s issue is overruled. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
