Opinion
In The Court of Appeals Seventh District of Texas at Amarillo
No. 07-20-00070-CR
GREGORY ARELLANO, APPELLANT
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE
On Appeal from the 64th District Court Hale County, Texas Trial Court No. A20048-1509, Honorable Robert W. Kinkaid, Jr., Presiding
April 3, 2020
MEMORANDUM OPINION Before QUINN, C.J., and PIRTLE and PARKER, JJ.
Gregory Arellano was convicted of evading arrest or detention using a vehicle.
Following the conviction, his trial counsel moved to withdraw and filed a “Notice” with the
trial court clerk stating the deadline to file a notice of appeal. The “Notice” was forwarded
to this Court by the trial court clerk as a notice of appeal.
Because the “Notice” did not show Arellano’s desire to appeal from the judgment,
we directed trial counsel to show how we have jurisdiction over the appeal. See TEX. R.
APP. P. 25.2(c)(2). Counsel advised that the “Notice” was not intended as a notice of appeal. No other documents were filed by Arellano indicating a bona fide attempt to
invoke this Court's jurisdiction. See Few v. State, 230 S.W.3d 184, 189 (Tex. Crim. App.
2007). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
