                         THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

              On Appeal from the County Criminal Court at Law No. 4
                              Harris County, Texas
                                 Cause No. 5587
               Appealed from City of Houston Municipal Court No. 2
                   Trial Court Cause number 2010 TR 0924478

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Appellant was convicted of speeding and assessed a fine of $65.00 in the City of
Houston Municipal Court. She appealed the conviction on the record to the County
Criminal Court at Law No. 2 of Harris County, Texas. That court affirmed the conviction
and appellant perfected an appeal to this court. We dismiss the appeal.

      A defendant may appeal to a court of appeals if she is convicted in a municipal court
of record and that conviction is affirmed by the county court. See Tex. Gov’t Code §
30.00027(a). However, such an appeal is permitted only if “the fine assessed against the
defendant exceeds $100.” Id. Because the fine in this case does not exceed $100, we
have no jurisdiction over the appeal.

       Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.

                                         PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Jamison and McCally.
