CHARLES CLAYTON BEARD, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 252nd District Court
Jefferson County, Texas
Trial Cause No. 13-17137
MEMORANDUM OPINION
On August 12, 2013, the trial court sentenced appellant Charles Clayton Beard on a conviction for burglary of a habitation. Beard filed a notice of appeal on August 22, 2013. 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 August 27, 2013, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. No response has been filed. 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.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
