THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 253rd District Court Liberty County, Texas Trial Cause No. CR28245 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On March 8, 2011, the trial court sentenced Victor Mendez on a conviction for aggravated sexual assault of a child. Mendez filed a notice of appeal on April 6, 2011. The trial court signed a certification 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 July 27, 2011, 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 1 trial court s certification shows the defendant does not have the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. APPEAL DISMISSED. ________________________________ STEVE McKEITHEN Chief Justice Opinion Delivered August 24, 2011 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Horton, JJ. 2
