JOHN JACKSON, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Do Not Publish Tex.R.App.P. 47.2(b) 220861F.U05
On Appeal from the Criminal District Court No. 6 Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F21-54009-X
Before Chief Justice Burns, Justice Myers, and Justice Pedersen, III
MEMORANDUM OPINION
ROBERT D. BURNS, III CHIEF JUSTICE
John Jackson filed a notice of appeal on August 29, 2022, stating he wished to appeal the trial court's August 2, 2022 order modifying the terms and conditions of his probation.
Orders modifying conditions of community supervision are not appealable orders. Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2, 5 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977); see Davis v. State, 195 S.W.3d 708, 710 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006) (legislature has authorized appeal in two instances: from order granting probation and from order revoking probation; there is no legislative authority for entertaining a direct appeal from an order modifying the conditions of community supervision). Without an appealable order, this Court has no jurisdiction to entertain this appeal. Abbott v. State, 271 S.W.3d 694, 697 (Tex. Crim. App. 2008); Nikrasch v. State, 698 S.W.2d 443, 450 (Tex. App.-Dallas 1985, no pet.).
We dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
JUDGMENT
Based on the Court's opinion of this date, we DISMISS this appeal. Judgment entered September 1, 2022
