THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause Nos. 11-11716 and 11-11717 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On August 29, 2011, the trial court sentenced Lance Palermo on convictions for intoxication manslaughter and aggravated assault. Palermo filed a notice of appeal on November 4, 2011. The trial court entered certifications of the defendant=s right to appeal in which the court certified that these are plea-bargain cases 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 certifications to the Court of Appeals. On November 8, 2011, we notified the parties that 1 we would dismiss the appeals unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeals. No response has been filed. Because the records do not contain certifications that show the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeals. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals. APPEALS DISMISSED. STEVE McKEITHEN Chief Justice Opinion Delivered December 14, 2011 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Horton, JJ. 2
