          On June 15, 2000, the trial court entered a judgment adjudicating guilt in the above-referenced case, and sentenced appellant to confinement for 25 years for the offense of possession of a firearm by a felon. Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal, and the appeal was assigned to the Fourteenth Court of Appeals.

          On October 18, 2001, the Fourteenth Court of Appeals issued an opinion in appeals number 14-00-00956-CR affirming the appeal, and the mandate issued on December 21, 2001.

          On July 24, 2006, appellant filed a second notice of appeal from the same judgment adjudicating guilt. The appeal was assigned to this Court and given new appellate cause number 01-06-00703-CR.
