IN THE
TENTH COURT OF APPEALS
 

No. 10-02-011-CR

     DANIEL RAYHAAN ALI,
                                                                              Appellant
     v.

     THE STATE OF TEXAS,
                                                                              Appellee
 

From the 87th District Court
Freestone County, Texas
Trial Court # 01-103-CR
                                                                                                                

MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                                                                                                

      Daniel Rayhaan Ali pleaded guilty to arson.  Pursuant to the State’s plea recommendation,
the court assessed Ali’s punishment at twenty years’ imprisonment.  Ali filed a general notice of
appeal.  To properly invoke the jurisdiction of this Court over an appeal from a negotiated guilty
plea, an appellant must file a notice of appeal which complies with Rule of Appellate Procedure
25.2(b)(3).  See White v. State, No. 123-01, slip op. at 7, 2001 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 124, at
*11 (Tex. Crim. App. Dec. 5, 2001); Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(b)(3).  Ali’s general notice of appeal
does not.  Accordingly, we dismiss Ali’s appeal for want of jurisdiction.

      Justice Vance, and
