On appeal from the 148th District Court

of Nueces County, Texas.

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Hinojosa, Yañez, and Garza

Opinion Per Curiam

         Appellant seeks to appeal from orders imposing sanctions on defendant and continuing or modifying community supervision. We dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.

         In Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977), the Court held that a defendant may not appeal from an order continuing a defendant on probation with amended terms and conditions. There is neither constitutional nor statutory authority which would confer jurisdiction on this Court to hear an appeal from an order modifying probationary conditions. Basaldua, 558 S.W.2d at 5.

         Accordingly, the appeals are dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

                                                               PER CURIAM

Do not publish.

Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
