NUMBER 13-06-447-CR


COURT OF APPEALS


THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS


CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG




 

RODNEY COATS,                                                                       Appellant,


v.


THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                                               Appellee.





On appeal from the 347th District Court

of Nueces County, Texas.



 


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Yañez and Garza

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam


          Appellant seeks to appeal from an order continuing or modifying community supervision. We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

          In Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977), the Court held that a defendant may not appeal from an order continuing a defendant on probation with amended terms and conditions. There is neither constitutional nor statutory authority which would confer jurisdiction on this Court to hear an appeal from an order modifying probationary conditions. Basaldua, 558 S.W.2d at 5.

          Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.

                                                                           PER CURIAM

Do not publish.

Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
