JAMES MICHAEL MCKILLOP, APPELLANT

THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE

FROM THE 251ST DISTRICT COURT OF RANDALL COUNTY;
NO. 17,375-C; HONORABLE PATRICK A. PIRTLE, JUDGE
_______________________________
Before REAVIS and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Pursuant to a plea of guilty, appellant James Michael McKillop was granted deferred
adjudication for burglary of a building and placed on community supervision for four years.
An $800 fine was not suspended. Proceeding pro se, appellant filed a notice of appeal
expressing a desire to challenge community supervision.
The trial court’s certification of defendant’s right of appeal reflects this is a plea-
bargain case with no right of appeal and that appellant waived his right of appeal. By letter
dated January 11, 2006, this Court notified appellant that the certification indicated no right
of appeal and requested a response by January 23, 2006. The Court noted that failure to
file an amended certification showing a right of appeal or failure to provide other grounds
for continuing the appeal might result in dismissal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).
The letter to appellant was returned by the United States Post Office with a
designation of “unable to forward.” Efforts by the Clerk of this Court to obtain a current
address for appellant proved unsuccessful. Based on the certification, we have no choice
but to dismiss the appeal.
Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
