Max Alexander Rodeman v. The State of Texas

Summary

The Ninth Court of Appeals of Texas at Beaumont reviewed Max Alexander Rodeman’s Anders appeal from five convictions for possession with intent to promote child pornography. Rodeman pleaded guilty and received concurrent fifteen-year sentences for each count. After independently reviewing the record and finding no reversible error or arguable grounds for appeal, the court affirmed the trial court’s judgments.

Holdings

1. After conducting a full examination of the record and reviewing appellate counsel's Anders brief, the court found no reversible error and nothing that would arguably support an appeal.
2. Appointment of new appellate counsel was unnecessary because the court found no arguable grounds for appeal.

Questions Presented

1. Whether the Anders review of the record revealed any reversible error or arguable grounds for appeal.
2. Whether appointment of new appellate counsel was required to rebrief the appeal.

Disposition

affirmed
