Torrance Ray Evans, Jr., Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee (2016)

ORDER AND MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant Torrance Ray Evans, Jr. appeals from the trial court's judgment of conviction. However, there is conflicting information in the clerk's record about Evans's right to appeal, reflecting both Evans's waiver of his right to appeal and the trial court's certification that Evans has the right to appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d) (requiring trial court's certification of defendant's right of appeal); see also Alexander v. State, No. 03-16-00503-CR, 2016 Tex. App. LEXIS 9685, at *1 (Tex. App.—Austin Aug. 31, 2016, no pet. h.) (mem. op., not designated for publication) (abating appeal based on same conflict in clerk's record); Adkinson v. State, No. 03-11-00639-CR, 2012 Tex. App. LEXIS 4027, at *1 (Tex. App.—Austin May 17, 2012, no pet.) (mem. op., not designated for publication) (same).

Accordingly, we abate this appeal and remand the cause to the trial court for entry of an amended certification clarifying Evans's right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(f). A supplemental clerk's record containing the trial court's amended certification shall be filed with this Court on or before November 22, 2016. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d), 34.5(c)(2), 37.1.

It is ordered on October 24, 2016.
