Shanelle Evette CHARLES, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee


MEMORANDUM OPINION


From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

Trial Court Nos. 2014CR0038, 2012CR3193, & 2013CR10374

Honorable Maria Teresa Herr, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM Sitting: Marialyn Barnard, Justice

Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice

Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
DISMISSED

Appellant entered into three plea bargain agreements with the State pursuant to which she pleaded nolo contendere to the offenses of bribery, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, and burglary of a habitation by force. The trial court imposed sentence in each case and, in each case, signed a certificate stating that this "is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal." See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). Appellant timely filed notices of appeal. The clerk's records, which include the plea bargain agreements and the trial court's Rule 25.2(a)(2) certifications, have been filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). This court must dismiss an appeal "if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record." Id.

This court gave appellant notice that the appeals would be dismissed unless amended trial court certifications showing she has the right to appeal were made part of the appellate records within thirty days. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d); 37.1; Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, order), disp. on merits, No. 04-03-00176-CR, 2003 WL 21508347 (July 2, 2003, pet. ref'd) (not designated for publication). Appellant's appointed appellate counsel filed a written response, stating he has reviewed the records and can find no right of appeal. After reviewing the records and counsel's response, we agree appellant does not have a right to appeal. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (holding that court of appeals should review clerk's record to determine whether trial court's certification is accurate). We therefore dismiss these appeals. TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d).
