ALAN MICHAEL SCHUECKLER, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 265th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F11-72399-R

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Schenck, Smith, and Garcia
Opinion by Justice Garcia

Appellant Alan Michael Schueckler pleaded guilty to sexual assault of a child and was placed on deferred adjudication community supervision for eight years.

Almost six years later, the State filed a motion to revoke probation or proceed with an adjudication of guilt, which it later amended. After a hearing, the trial court adjudicated appellant guilty and assessed punishment at four years' imprisonment. Appellant timely appealed.

In two issues, appellant asserts that the judgment adjudicating guilt incorrectly states that he pleaded true to the State's motion to adjudicate. He asks us to modify the judgment to show that he pleaded not true to allegations "aa" and "y." The State does not oppose appellant's requested relief.

The State's amended motion alleged that appellant violated four conditions of his probation, namely conditions "aa," "v," "y," and "z." The reporter's record of the motion-to-adjudicate hearing shows that the State withdrew its motion as to condition "z." It also shows that appellant pleaded true to violating condition "v" and pleaded not true to all other alleged violations.

We can modify the trial court's judgment to make the record speak the truth when we have the information necessary to do so. See TEX. R. APP. P. 43.2(b); Asberry v. State, 813 S.W.2d 526, 529-30 (Tex. App.—Dallas 1991, pet. ref'd) (en banc).

Accordingly, we modify the trial court's judgment so that the section entitled "Plea to Motion to Adjudicate" reads "True to violation of condition 'v.' Not true to violations of conditions 'y' and 'aa.'" We affirm the judgment as modified.
