JAMES ALLEN YOUNG, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.


Do not publish. Tex.R.App.P. 47.2(b).

ON APPEAL FROM THE 36TH DISTRICT COURT OF ARANSAS COUNTY, TEXAS

Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Tijerina and Peña

MEMORANDUM OPINION

L. ARON PEÑA JR. Justice

Appellant filed a notice of appeal attempting to appeal a judgment in trial court case number A-23-5175-CR. We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

Upon review of the documents filed, the trial court has 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). On May 7, 2024, we ordered appellant's counsel to review the record and determine whether appellant had a right to appeal. On June 6, 2024, appellant's counsel responded concluding that appellant waived his right to appeal and otherwise does not have a right to appeal.

The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed if the trial court's certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal. See id R. 25.2(d), 37.1, and 44.3. Accordingly, this case is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
