Fourteenth Court of Appeals

NO. 14-05-01275-CR

AMBER LACHELLE
SPICER, Appellant
 
V.
 
THE STATE OF
TEXAS, Appellee
 

 
On Appeal from County Criminal
Court at Law No. 2
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No.
1301063
 

 
M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N
Amber Lachelle Spicer entered a plea of guilty to theft
pursuant to a plea bargain and the trial court deferred adjudicating guilt,
placed her under community supervision for one year, and assessed a $300
fine.  Subsequently, the State filed a
motion to adjudicate guilt.  The trial court
did not adjudicate guilt, but amended Spicer=s conditions of community
supervision.  Spicer filed a pro se
notice of appeal.




Generally, an appellate court only has jurisdiction to
consider an appeal by a criminal defendant where there has been a final
judgment of conviction.  Workman v.
State, 170 Tex. Crim. 621, 343 S.W.2d 446, 447 (1961);  McKown v. State, 915 S.W.2d 160, 161 (Tex.
App. B Fort Worth 1996, no pet.).  The exceptions include:  (1) appeals from deferred adjudication
community supervision, Kirk v. State, 942 S.W.2d 624, 625 (Tex. Crim.
App.1997); (2) appeals from the denial of a motion to reduce bond, TEX.R.APP.
P. 31.1; McKown, 915 S.W.2d at 161; 
and (3) certain appeals from the denial of habeas corpus relief, Wright
v. State, 969 S.W.2d 588, 589 (Tex. App.BDallas 1998, no pet.);  McKown, 915 S.W.2d at 161. 
Spicer did not file a timely notice of
appeal from the trial court=s decision to
defer adjudication.  The imposition of
amended conditions of community supervision is not a separately appealable
order.  Because this appeal does not fall
within the exceptions to the general rule that appeal may be taken only from a
final judgment of conviction, we have no jurisdiction. 
Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
