Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-18-00600-CR Lorenzo VEGA, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 175th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2018CR6449 Honorable Catherine Torres-Stahl, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice Delivered and Filed: October 10, 2018 DISMISSED On September 12, 2018, this court issued an order stating this appeal would be dismissed pursuant to Rule 25.2(d) unless an amended trial court certification that shows appellant has the right of appeal was made part of the appellate record within thirty days of the order. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d), 37.1; see also Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174, 175-76 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, order). Appellant’s counsel filed a response in which he states that he has reviewed the clerk’s record and “can find no right of appeal” for appellant; counsel concedes that we may dismiss the appeal for that reason. In light of the record presented, Rule 25.2(d) requires this court 04-18-00600-CR to dismiss this appeal. TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). The record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal; to the contrary, the trial court certification in the record states “this criminal case is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” The clerk’s record contains a written plea bargain, and the punishment assessed did not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant; therefore, the clerk’s record supports the trial court’s certification that the defendant has no right of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). PER CURIAM Do not publish -2-
