In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont _________________ NO. 09-11-00455-CR _________________ CARL CHOPANE, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 11-10867 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On July 11, 2011, the trial court sentenced Carl Chopane on a conviction for evading arrest or detention. Chopane filed a notice of appeal on August 12, 2011. The trial court entered a certification of the defendant s right to appeal 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 August 17, 2011, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. No 1 response has been filed. Because the record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. APPEAL DISMISSED. ___________________________ CHARLES KREGER Justice Opinion Delivered September 21, 2011 Do not publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Horton, JJ. 2
