On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas, Trial Cause No. 07-01841.

Before GAULTNEY, KREGER, and HORTON, JJ.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On December 8, 2008, the trial court sentenced Robert Wilcox on a conviction for evading arrest or detention by using a vehicle. Wilcox filed a notice of appeal on December 17, 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 December 18, 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.
