In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ______________________ NO. 09-08-162 CR ______________________ CURTIS BIAS A/K/A CURTIS PALMER, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 07-01474 MEMORANDUM OPINION On March 26, 2008, the trial court sentenced Curtis Bias a/k/a Curtis Palmer on a conviction for evading arrest or detention by using a vehicle. Bias filed a notice of appeal on April 2, 2008. The trial court entered a certification of the defendant s right to appeal in which the court certified that the defendant has waived his right of appeal. See T EX. R. A PP. P. 25.2(a)(2). The district clerk has provided the trial court s certification to the Court of Appeals. 1 On April 3, 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 T EX. R. A PP. 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 T EX. R. A PP. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. APPEAL DISMISSED. DAVID GAULTNEY Justice Opinion Delivered May 7, 2008 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Kreger, JJ. 2
