GARRETT HOUSTON HANNES, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


Do Not Publish - Tex.R.App.P. 47.2(b).

On Appeal from the 268th District Court Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 20-DCR-093173

Panel consists of Justices Jewell, Spain, and Wilson.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

After appellant pleaded no contest to possession of child pornography and waived his right to appeal, the trial court ordered appellant placed on deferred-adjudication community supervision for 6 years. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal from that order. Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 44.02; see Manuel v. State, 994 S.W.2d 658, 661-62 (Tex. Crim. App. 1999).

The trial court's certification of the defendant's right to appeal certified that both (1) this is a plea bargain case, and appellant has no right of appeal and (2) appellant has waived his right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). The record supports the trial court's certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). At appellant's request, counsel was appointed to assist him in attempting to show this court nevertheless could exercise jurisdiction over this appeal. A March 14, 2022 filing by appellant's counsel detailed counsel's efforts to identify a basis for this court to exercise jurisdiction while acknowledging that appellant had not contacted his counsel. Consequently, on March 31, 2022, this court ordered that unless appellant could demonstrate within thirty days that this court has jurisdiction over his appeal, the appeal could be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Appellant has not filed any response to the order. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
