JOSEPH ATKINS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
From the 54th District Court
McLennan County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2011-1252-C2
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Joseph Atkins attempts to appeal from his conviction for possession of a controlled substance. By letter dated May 18, 2012, the Clerk of this Court notified Atkins that the appeal was subject to dismissal because it appeared that the trial court's certificate of right of appeal indicated that this was a plea bargain case and he had no right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2 (a) (2), (d). The record contains a written waiver of appeal signed by Atkins. The Clerk also warned Atkins that the appeal would be dismissed unless, within 21 days of the date of the letter, a response was filed showing grounds for continuing the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 44.3. Atkins did not file a response.
Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
