*1 In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana
No. 06-16-00020-CR KEVIN BRYAN FARRAR, Appellant V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 188th District Court Gregg County, Texas Trial Court No. 41109-A Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss *2 MEMORANDUM OPINION
Kevin Bryan Farrar pled guilty to forgery. In accordance with his negotiated plea agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced Farrar to two years’ confinement in state jail, but suspended the sentence in favor of placing Farrar on community supervision for five years. However, after Farrar pled true to the State’s allegations that he violated the terms and conditions of his community supervision, the trial court revoked Farrar’s community supervision and sentenced him to fifteen months’ confinement in state jail.
On appeal, [1] Farrar argues that his sentence violated his Eighth Amendment protections because it was disproportionate to his crime. We addressed the question of whether we have jurisdiction to address this issue in our opinion of this date on Farrar’s appeal in cause number 06- 16-00019-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we likewise conclude that we do not have jurisdiction over Farrar’s sole point of error on appeal in this matter.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. Josh R. Morriss, III Chief Justice Date Submitted: August 26, 2016
Date Decided: November 17, 2016
