In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont _________________ NO. 09-11-00141-CR No. 09-11-00142-CR _________________ JAMES LOUIS CRAWFORD, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 435th District Court Montgomery County, Texas Trial Cause Nos. 10-10-10796 CR and 10-12-13648 CR ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On March 14, 2011, the trial court sentenced James Louis Crawford on convictions for unlawful use of a criminal instrument and burglary of a habitation. Crawford filed a notice of appeal on March 21, 2011. In each case, the trial court entered a certification of the defendant s right to appeal in which the court certified that this is a plea-bargain case 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 March 24, 2011, we notified the parties in each case that we would dismiss 1 the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. 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 _____________________________ STEVE McKEITHEN Chief Justice Opinion Delivered April 27, 2011 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Kreger, JJ. 2
