      I have received a copy of this certification. I have also been informed of my rights concerning any appeal of this
crimi nal case, inc1uding any right to file a prose petition for discretionary review pursuant to Rule 68 of the Texas
Rules of Appellate Procedure. I have been admonished that my attorney must mail a copy of the court of appeals'
judgment and opinion to my last known address and that I have only 30 days in which lo tile a pro se petition for
discretionary review in the Court of Criminal Appeals. Tex. R. App. P. 68.2. I acknowledge that, if I wish to appeal
this case and if I am entitled to do so, it is my duty to inform my appellate attorney, by written communication, of
any change in the address at which I am currently living or any change in my current prison unit. I understand that,
because of appe1late deadlines, if J fail to timely inform my appellate attorney of any change in my address, I may
lose the opportunity to tile a pro se petition for discretionary review.
