Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-16-00398-CR Susan I. ANDERSON, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 290th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2013CR0841 Honorable Melisa Skinner, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Jason Pulliam, Justice Delivered and Filed: July 27, 2016 DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION Appellant Susan I. Anderson pled no contest to tampering with a governmental record with intent to defraud or harm. On January 16, 2015, Appellant’s adjudication of guilt was deferred and she was placed on community supervision. On June 1, 2016, the trial court amended Appellant’s community supervision conditions. Appellant now seeks to appeal from the trial court’s June 1, 2016 order modifying the conditions of her deferred adjudication. On June 30, 2016, we notified Appellant that “an order modifying the terms or conditions of deferred adjudication is not in itself appealable.” Davis v. State, 195 S.W.3d 708, 711 (Tex. 04-16-00398-CR Crim. App. 2006) (citing Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2, 5 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977)). We ordered Appellant to show cause in writing why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. On July 13, 2016, Appellant’s court-appointed appellate counsel advised this court that counsel had reviewed the record and “Appellant is not entitled to a right of appeal.” Because the order modifying the terms of Appellant’s deferred adjudication is not an appealable order, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Davis, 195 S.W.3d at 711. PER CURIAM DO NOT PUBLISH -2-
