APPEAL FROM THE 273RD

JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF

SHELBY COUNTY, TEXAS



MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

This appeal is being dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Appellant was convicted of failure to register as a sex offender, and punishment was assessed at imprisonment for two years.

To invoke the appellate court's full jurisdiction, the notice of appeal in a criminal case must bear the trial court's certification of the appellant's right to appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). However, the certification may be added to the record by timely amendment or supplementation. Id. Appellant's notice of appeal does not include the required certification.

On May 27, 2008, this court notified Appellant through his counsel, pursuant to Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 25.2 and 37.1, that the notice of appeal does not include the trial court certification. The notice also informed Appellant that the appeal would be dismissed unless, on or before June 11, 2008, the clerk's record was amended to include the required certification.

The deadline for responding to this court's notice has expired, and the clerk's record has not been amended to show Appellant's right to appeal. Therefore, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Opinion delivered June 25, 2008.

Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Griffith, J., and Hoyle, J.
