Fourteenth Court of Appeals

NO. 14-23-00742-CR

ISAIAH CHRISTIAN TAYLOR, Appellant

V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 338th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1770705

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant Isaiah Christian Taylor pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery
without an agreed recommendation. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 29.03(a)(2).
Appellant also waived his right to appeal. After a hearing on the public safety
investigation report, the trial court found appellant guilty and assessed punishment
at imprisonment for twenty years. We dismiss the appeal.

The trial court’s certification of the defendant’s right to appeal stated that
appellant waived his right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). The trial
court’s certification is included in the record on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P.
25.2(d). The record supports the trial court’s certification. See Dears v. State, 154
S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). On December 5, 2023, we sent notice to
appellant that the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction unless
appellant filed a response within 21 days. Appellant filed no response.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
