Terrance RAMSEY, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee


MEMORANDUM OPINION

From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2013CR5401
Honorable Maria Teresa Herr, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Karen Angelini, Justice Marialyn Barnard, Justice Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice DISMISSED

The trial court's initial certification in this appeal stated that "this criminal case is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal." Rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provides that an appeal "must be dismissed if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules." TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). The clerk's record in this appeal contains a written plea bargain, and the punishment assessed did not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant. Thus, the clerk's record supports the trial court's certification that the appellant has no right of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2).

We warned appellant that this appeal would be dismissed pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 25.2(d), unless an amended trial court certification showing that he had the right to appeal was made part of the appellate record. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d), 37.1; Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, order). No such amended trial court certification has been filed. Therefore, this appeal is dismissed pursuant to Rule 25.2(d).

An amended trial court certification was filed in this case; however, it does not show that appellant has the right to appeal. Instead, it states that this is a plea bargain case, and the defendant has no right to appeal and that the defendant has waived the right of appeal. --------
