On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas, Trial Court Nos. 08-03356.

Before GAULTNEY, KREGER, and HORTON, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On August 11, 2008, the trial court sentenced Jimmy Earl Thomas on a conviction for aggravated robbery. Thomas filed a notice of appeal on September 9, 2008. The trial court entered a certification of the defendant's right to appeal in which the court certified that this is a plea-bargain case and the defendant has no right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). The district clerk has provided the trial court's certification to the Court of Appeals. On September 10, 2008, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless an amended certification was filed within fifteen days of the date of the notice and made a part of the appellate record. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(f). The record has not been supplemented with an amended certification. Because the record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. APPEAL DISMISSED.
