Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Lawanda Lashae Woods, Appellant v. the State of Texas

February 20, 20022002 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 40

Summary

The Court held that the appellant’s general notice of appeal failed to satisfy Rule 25.2(b)(3), depriving the appellate court of jurisdiction to review both the conviction and the adult certification order, and therefore reversed and remanded the Court of Appeals decision. Justice WOMACK, in a concurring opinion, agreed the appeal should be dismissed but argued that Rule 25.2(b)(3) should not apply to a post‑plea revocation appeal.
