On appeal from the 347th District Court of Nueces County, Texas.

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Ya ez, Rodriguez, and Garza
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, LEE M. CAGLE, attempts to appeal a conviction for evading arrest or detention. The trial court has certified that "the defendant has waived the right of appeal." See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

On September 28, 2006, this Court notified appellant's counsel of the trial court's certification and ordered counsel to: (1) review the record; (2) determine whether appellant has a right to appeal; and (3) forward to this Court, by letter, counsel's findings as to whether appellant has a right to appeal, or, alternatively, advise this Court as to the existence of any amended certification.

On October 2, 2006, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court. Counsel's response fails to establish either that the certification currently on file with this Court is incorrect or that appellant otherwise has a right to appeal.

The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed if the trial court's certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); see Tex. R. App. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed. Any pending motions are denied as moot.
