AFFIRMED
Appellant Anthony Martinez appeals the revocation of his community supervision and
adjudication of guilt on one count of indecency with a child. TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 21.11. In
one issue, Martinez contends that the evidence is insufficient to prove the State’s allegations that
he failed to report to a probation officer. We affirm.
Martinez pleaded no contest to one count of indecency with a child, a second-degree felony.
In accordance with a plea bargain agreement, the trial court deferred adjudication and placed
04-26-00100-CR
Martinez on community supervision for five years. Thereafter, the State filed a motion to enter
adjudication of guilt and revoke community supervision. As amended, the State’s motion alleged
that Martinez: (1) falsely identified himself with fugitive intent to a law enforcement officer during
a traffic stop; (2) committed the offense of driving with an invalid driver’s license; (3) did not
report with a probation officer between February 2024 and December 2024; and (4) did not report
with a probation officer between January 2025 and October 2025. At the hearing on the State’s
motion to revoke, Martinez answered “not true” to all four of the State’s allegations. 1 The trial
court found the first allegation not true, but the remaining three to be true. The trial court assessed
punishment at twelve years imprisonment.
On appeal, Martinez contends that the evidence is insufficient to prove the State’s
allegations that he failed to report to a probation officer. The State responds that Martinez fails to
challenge the other allegation that the trial court found to be true — that Martinez committed the
offense of driving with an invalid driver’s license.
“Proof of a single violation of community supervision is sufficient to support a trial court’s
decision to revoke community supervision, and we must affirm a trial court’s judgment if an
appellant does not challenge each ground on which the trial court revoked community
supervision.” Olabode v. State, 575 S.W.3d 878, 880–81 (Tex. App.—Dallas 2019, pet. ref’d)
(citations omitted). We overrule Martinez’s sole issue because he does not challenge the trial
court’s finding that he committed the offense of driving with an invalid driver’s license. See id.
The judgment of the trial court is reformed to reflect that Martinez answered “not true” to
all four of the State’s alleged violations. The judgment is further reformed to reflect that the trial

violations.

court found the first allegation not true, but the remaining three allegations to be true. As reformed,
the trial court’s judgment is affirmed.
