                   On appeal from the 377th District Court
                         of Victoria County, Texas.

      By jury verdict, Tiphanie Raquel Tippin was found guilty of the possession of

marijuana, sentenced to one year of state jail with the jail sentence probated and the

defendant placed on community supervision with a $5,000 fine. The trial court set aside

the verdict and sentenced the defendant to five years of deferred adjudication with a
$5,000 fine and voided the jury’s finding of guilty. Both the State and the defendant have

appealed.

this Court’s jurisdiction over the State’s appeal. See generally TEX. CODE. CRIM. PROC.

       IT IS SO ORDERED.
