In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ________________ NO. 09-11-00322-CR ________________ JASON MICHAEL JENKINS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 09-07187 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On June 3, 2011, the trial court sentenced Jason Michael Jenkins on a conviction for felony theft. Jenkins filed a notice of appeal on June 10, 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 waived the 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 June 14, 2011, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. The appellant filed a 1 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. STEVE McKEITHEN Chief Justice Opinion Delivered August 10, 2011 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Gaultney and Kreger, JJ. 2
