Description:



New Braunfels, Texas criminal defense lawyer represented the defendant charged with fraudulent possession of identifiying information in violation of Tex. Penal Code § 32.51(b)(1), (c)(2).



Appellant Justin Wayne Norton was convicted by a jury of fraudulent possession

of identifying information. See Tex. Penal Code § 32.51(b)(1), (c)(2). The jury found the

enhancement allegations of the indictment to be true and, pursuant to the habitual offender

punishment provision of the Penal Code, assessed appellant's punishment at confinement in the

Texas Department of Criminal Justice for twenty-eight years.
Outcome:
This Court has authority to modify incorrect judgments when the necessary

information is available to do so. See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(b); Bigley v. State, 865 S.W.2d 26,

27–28 (Tex. Crim. App. 1993). Accordingly, we modify the judgment of conviction to reflect

that the “Statute for Offense” is “32.51(b)(1), (c)(2) / 12.42(d) PENAL CODE.” As modified,

the trial court’s judgment of conviction is affirmed.
