IN THE INTEREST OF J.R.


On Appeal from the 279th District Court Jefferson County, Texas
Trial Cause No. F-182 ,592-E

MEMORANDUM OPINION

In a child support case, the trial court revoked community supervision on a previous contempt judgment, committed Jelmar Alen Rhodes to county jail, and granted judgment for $28,031.57 on a child support arrearage. In his appeal, Rhodes concedes that he is in arrears, and he does not argue that the trial court granted a judgment for more than he owes. Rhodes asks this Court to render a different decision than the trial court, but he neither challenges the sufficiency of the evidence nor does he claim that the trial court abused its discretion. No judgment may be reversed on appeal unless the trial court erred and the error probably caused the rendition of an improper judgment or probably prevented the appellant from properly presenting the case to the appellate court. See Tex. R. App. P. 44.1(a). The trial court's judgment is affirmed.

Rhodes has not challenged the legality of his confinement through a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. See In re Estate of Gibbons, 451 S.W.3d 115, 127 (Tex. App.—Houston [14th Dist.] 2014, pet. denied); In re Office of Attorney Gen. of Tex., 215 S.W.3d 913, 915 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2007, orig. proceeding).

AFFIRMED.
