Memorandum Opinion
_______________________________

Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ.
            Pending before the court is the appeal of Benny Joe Palomo.  The clerk’s record
was filed on January 21, 2008, and a supplemental clerk’s record on March 19, 2008.
Contained therein is the Trial Court’s Certification of Defendant’s Right of Appeal, which
was executed on February 12, 2008, after amendments to Rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules
of Appellate Procedure became effective on September 1, 2007.  The form on file does not
comply with the amendments to the rule, which now require that a defendant sign the
certification and receive a copy.  Additionally, the new form provides certain admonishments
to a defendant not previously required.
 
           Procedural rules generally control litigation from their effective date.  Wilson v. State,
473 S.W.2d 532, 535 (Tex.Crim.App. 1971).  Consequently, we abate this appeal and
remand this cause to the trial court for further proceedings.  Upon remand, the trial court
shall utilize whatever means necessary to determine if appellant desires to continue the
appeal and, if so, secure a proper Certification of Defendant’s Right of Appeal in compliance
with Rule 25.2(d).  Once properly completed and executed, the certification shall be included
in a supplemental clerk’s record.  See Tex. R. App. P. 34.5(c)(2).  The trial court shall cause
this supplemental clerk's record to be filed with the Clerk of this Court by June 27, 2008. 
This order constitutes notice to all parties, pursuant to Rule 37.1 of the Texas Rules of
Appellate Procedure, of the defective certification.  If a supplemental clerk’s record
containing a proper certification is not filed in accordance with this order, this matter will be
referred to the Court for dismissal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). 
           It is so ordered.
