OMAR GARCIA, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 228th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1009360
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
Appellant entered a plea of Aguilty@ pursuant to a plea bargain to the offense of assault. In accordance with the terms of the agreement, the trial judge deferred adjudication of guilt and placed appellant on community supervision for three years. Subsequently, the State filed a motion to adjudicate guilt. After a hearing, the trial court found appellant guilty and assessed punishment at confinement for ten years. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal from the judgment adjudicating guilt.
The record reflects that appellant initially entered a plea of Anot true@ to the State=s allegations, but after evidence was heard appellant admitted to violating the terms and conditions of his community supervision. On appeal, appellant claims the trial court erred in improperly restricting his cross-examination of the State=s witness in violation of his right of confrontation.
Pursuant to the version of Article 42.12, section 5(b) of the Code of Criminal Procedure in effect at the time of the hearing[1], we do not have jurisdiction to consider claims relating to the trial court=s determination to proceed with an adjudication of guilt. See Davis v. State, 195 S.W.3d 708, 710 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
