in The tppca1 Qtourt of if iitj itritt of ‘Icxa at afta No. 05-12-0061 1-CR LACEIMUCK LASIIAWN SMITH, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 282nd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. F10—131 14—S N’IEMORANI)UM OPINION Before Justices Bridges, Richter, and Lang Opinion by Justice Richter

Lacedrick Lashawn Smith pleaded guilty to unauthorized use of a motor vehicle. The trial court deferred adjudicating appellant’s guilt and placed him on two years’ community supervision. Although the State moved to adjudicate appellant’s guilt, the trial court did not adjudicate appellant’s guilt in this case and ultimately discharged appellant from community supervision.

The Court now has before it the State’s motion to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. The State asserts appellant’s April 6, 2012 notice of appeal is untimely as to the order deleriing adjudication of guilt and there was no judgment adjudicating guilt from which to appeal. Appellant did not respond to the motion. We agree we lack jurisdiction over the appeal.

Appellant’s notice ol appeal is filedstamped April 6, 2012, which was the date he was sentenced following the adjudication ot’ his guilt in two companion cases. Thereibre, the notice of appeal is untimely as to the December 20. 2010 order deferring adjudication of guilt. See TI:x. R. Ai’i’. P. 22( a)( 1) (notice ot appeal due within thirty days). And. because the trial court did not adjudicate appellant’s guilt, but continued him on community supervision until the April 12. 2() 1 2 order discharging him from supervision, there is no judgment from which to appeal.

See Basaldua n State, 558 S.W.2d 2, 5 (Tex.Crim, App. 1977). We grant the State’s motion to dismiss the appeal.

We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
