            TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

 

                                      TYLER, TEXAS

 

ALICIA GALINDEZ,

APPELLANT                                                     '     APPEAL FROM THE 241ST

 

V.                                                                         '     JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF

 

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                 '     SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS

APPELLEE

 

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

            This appeal is being dismissed for want of jurisdiction.  Appellant was placed on deferred adjudication community supervision on January 28, 2009.  The State later filed a motion to adjudicate guilt, which the trial court granted after a hearing.  Thereafter, Appellant filed a notice of appeal.

            To be sufficient to invoke the appellate court’s full jurisdiction, the notice of appeal filed by an appellant in a criminal case must bear the trial court’s certification of the appellant’s right to appeal under Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 25.2(a)(2).  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).  The certification should be part of the record when notice is filed, but may be added by timely amendment or supplementation.  IdAppellant’s notice of appeal does not include the required certification.

            On September 20, 2010, this court notified Appellant through her counsel, pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 25.2 and 37.1, that the notice of appeal does not include the trial court certification.  The notice also informed Appellant that the appeal would be dismissed unless, on or before September 30, 2010, the clerk’s record was amended to include the required certification.


            The deadline for responding to this court’s notice has expired, and the clerk’s record has not been amended to show Appellant’s right to appeal.  Therefore, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Opinion delivered October 6, 2010.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
