                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On October 2, 2014, we notified the parties that our jurisdiction was not

apparent from the notice of appeal and that the appeal would be dismissed for want

of jurisdiction unless we received a response showing grounds for continuing the

appeal. Gardner filed a response, but failed to establish this Court’s jurisdiction.

      The notice of appeal seeks to appeal the trial court’s order continuing

Gardner’s community supervision and imposing additional conditions. The trial

court’s order is not appealable. See Basaldua v. State, 558 S.W.2d 2, 5 (Tex. Crim.

                                           1
Ohio App. 1977) (Appellate court lacks jurisdiction on direct appeal from an order

modifying the terms and conditions of probation.); see also Christopher v. State, 7
S.W.3d 224, 225 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 1999, pet. ref’d). Accordingly,

we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
