NO. 07-12-00517-CR IN THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE SEVENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS AT AMARILLO PANEL A JANUARY 11, 2013 KISSTIN DIONE CAMPBELL, APPELLANT v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE FROM THE 181ST DISTRICT COURT OF RANDALL COUNTY; NO. 22,721-B; HONORABLE JOHN BOARD, JUDGE Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ. MEMORANDUM OPINION Appearing pro se, appellant Kisstin Dione Campbell appeals her conviction for forgery by possession and resulting sentence of a fine and confinement for one year in a state jail. The trial court s certification of right of appeal states appellant made a pleabargain agreement and has no right of appeal and appellant waived the right of appeal. By letter, we notified appellant her appeal was subject to dismissal unless by January 7, 2013, she furnished an amended certificate indicating a right of appeal or demonstrated other grounds for continuing the appeal. Appellant filed a response but did not include an amended certificate authorizing a right of appeal. Rather, she argued her court- appointed trial counsel rendered ineffective assistance. We find the absence of an amended certification demonstrating the right of appeal requires its dismissal. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d) ( The appeal must be dismissed if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules ); see Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006) (appellate court must dismiss prohibited appeal without further action). James T. Campbell Justice Do not publish. 2
