JESSICA LYNN MUSANTE, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the County Court at Law No 1 Fort Bend County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. 18-CCR-198221A

Panel Consists of Justices Jewell, Bourliot, and Zimmerer.

ORDER

PER CURIAM

Appellant timely appealed from a judgment of conviction in a criminal case. On July 29, 2022, the trial court clerk filed the clerk's record, which did not contain a certification of appellant's right to appeal. See Tex.R.App.P. 25.2(a)(2), 34.5(a)(12); see also Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 613 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). An appeal must be dismissed if a certification showing that the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record. Tex.R.App.P. 25.2(d); Dears, 154 S.W.3d at 613.

We have notified the trial court that the record fails to contain a certification of the defendant's right of appeal, but no certification has been filed. Accordingly, we order the trial court to execute a certification of appellant's right to appeal and direct the trial court clerk to prepare and file a supplemental clerk's record containing the certification with this court within 30 days of the date of this order. See Tex.R.App.P. 34.5(c)(2), 37.1, 44.4; Cortez v. State, 420 S.W.3d 803, 80607 (Tex. Crim. App. 2013).
