In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-11-00184-CR ____________________ ANTHONY PAUL PREVOST, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 09-07991 MEMORANDUM OPINION On March 21, 2011, the trial court sentenced Anthony Paul Prevost on a conviction for theft. Prevost filed a notice of appeal on March 25, 2011. 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 certification to the Court of Appeals. On April 14, 2011, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal 1 unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. The appellant filed a response but failed to establish that the trial court s certification should be amended. Because the record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. APPEAL DISMISSED. ________________________________ CHARLES KREGER Justice Opinion Delivered May 11, 2011 Do not publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Horton, JJ. 2
