petition for discretionary review in the court of 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

change in my address, I maWlose the opportunity to file a pro se petition for discretionary review.
