PRECIOUS YARNELL WASHINGTON, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed November 8, 2012.
On Appeal from the 228th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1248636
MEMORANDUM OPINION
The record reflects this is an attempted appeal of an order amending the conditions of probation entered August 16, 2012. An order altering or modifying probationary conditions is not reviewable on direct appeal. See Bailey v. State, 160 S.W.3d 11, 13 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004) (citing Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2, 5 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977); Dodson v. State, 988 S.W.2d 833 (Tex. App. -- San Antonio 1999, no pet.); and Jones v. State, 680 S.W.2d 580, (Tex. App. -- Beaumont 1984, no pet.).) Accordingly, we order the appeal dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
Appellant's notice of appeal was not filed until September 24, 2012, but it was mailed on September 17, 2012. Accordingly, the notice of appeal is timely.
Panel consists of Justices Frost, Christopher, and Jamison. Do Not Publish — Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
