TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-03-00472-CR

James Quisenberry, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 147TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 922635, HONORABLE WILFORD FLOWERS, JUDGE PRESIDING

James Quisenberry appeals the trial court's judgment revoking his community supervision. However, the record does not contain a certification by the trial court of his right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a), (d). Although rule 25.2(d) requires a court to dismiss an appeal if a certification showing a defendant's right of appeal has not been made a part of the record, we also may not affirm or reverse a judgment or dismiss an appeal for formal defects or irregularities in appellate procedure without allowing a reasonable time to correct or amend the defects or irregularities. Tex. R. App. P. 44.3; Jones v. State, 112 S.W.3d 266, 268 (Tex. App.--Corpus Christi 2003, no pet.). Accordingly, we abate this appeal until August 16, 2004, to allow a supplemental record to be filed containing the trial court's certification of appellant's right of appeal. See Jones, 112 S.W.3d at 268.
