Medellin v. State

Because appellant's Notice of Appeal does not contain any of the allegations necessary to invoke appellate jurisdiction over an appeal from his conviction, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Appellant Raynaldo Medellin appeals from his conviction for delivery of a controlled substance. We dismiss for want of jurisdiction.

Appellant has filed a “Notice of Appeal and Request for Court’s Permission to Appeal” from his judgment of conviction dated December 10, 2001, in Cause No. 44,283-B in the 181st District Court of Potter County for delivery of a controlled substance. Neither a clerk’s record nor a reporter’s record has been filed in connection with the appeal.

In his notice of appeal, appellant asserts that his conviction was pursuant to a plea bargain and that the punishment assessed by the trial court was in accordance with the plea bargain. Appellant does not allege that (1) his appeal is based on a jurisdictional defect, (2) the substance of the appeal was raised by written motion ruled on before trial or (3) the trial court granted permission to appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(b)(3). He asserts only that he is “requesting that the [trial] court grant permission to Defendant to pursue his appeal.”
