In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-11-00402-CR NO. 09-11-00403-CR ________________________ JASON JONES, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause Nos. 09-06867 and 10-08908 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION The trial court sentenced Jason Jones on convictions for possession of a controlled substance. Jones filed notices of appeal. The trial court signed certifications of the defendant s right to appeal in which the court certified that these are plea-bargain cases 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 certifications to the Court of Appeals. We notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeals unless the appellant established grounds for 1 continuing the appeals. The appellant filed a response but failed to establish that the trial court s certifications should be amended. Because the trial court s certifications do not show the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeals. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals. APPEALS DISMISSED. _______________________________ DAVID GAULTNEY Justice Opinion Delivered August 10, 2011 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Kreger, JJ. 2
