Juan Miguel Villela Jr., Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee
MEMORANDUM OPINION
The Legislature has not conferred the right to appeal from an order modifying the conditions of community supervision. See Davis v. State, 195 S.W.3d 708, 710 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006); Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2, 5 (Tex.Crim.App.1977); Roberts v. State, No. 11–00154–CR, 2011 WL 2150762, at *2 (Tex.App.—San Antonio 2011, pet. ref'd). Because it appeared that appellant was attempting to appeal from an order modifying the conditions of his community supervision, this court issued a show cause order directing appellant to show cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
Appellant, through his appointed attorney, responded to our order and agreed this court lacked jurisdiction over this appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
