Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-12-00566-CR David DELGADO, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 186th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2012CR4757 Honorable Maria Teresa Herr, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Karen Angelini, Justice Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice Phylis J. Speedlin, Justice Delivered and Filed: November 14, 2012 DISMISSED Pursuant to a plea-bargain agreement, David Delgado pled guilty to aggravated robbery and was sentenced to ten years and a fine of $2,000 in accordance with the terms of his pleabargain agreement. On August 6, 2012, the trial court signed a certification of defendant s right to appeal stating that this is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). After Delgado filed a notice of appeal, the trial court clerk sent copies of the certification and notice of appeal to this court. See id. 25.2(e). The clerk s record, which includes the trial court s Rule 25.2(a)(2) certification, has been filed. See id. 25.2(d). 04-12-00566-CR In a plea bargain case ... a defendant may appeal only: (A) those matters that were raised by written motion filed and ruled on before trial, or (B) after getting the trial court s permission to appeal. Id. 25.2(a)(2). The clerk s record, which contains a written plea bargain, establishes the punishment assessed by the court does not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant. See id. The clerk s record does not include a written motion filed and ruled upon before trial; nor does it indicate that the trial court gave its permission to appeal. See id. The trial court s certification, therefore, appears to accurately reflect that this is a plea-bargain case and that Delgado does not have a right to appeal. We must dismiss an appeal if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record. Id. 25.2(d). We therefore warned Delgado that this appeal would be dismissed pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 25.2(d), unless an amended trial court certification showing that Delgado has the right to appeal is made part of the appellate record by October 18, 2012. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d), 37.1; Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App. San Antonio 2003, order). No such amended trial court certification has been filed. This appeal is, therefore, dismissed pursuant to Rule 25.2(d). PER CURIAM Do not publish -2-
