In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-18-00331-CR NO. 09-18-00332-CR ____________________ JUSTIN THOMAS BROOKS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 260th District Court Orange County, Texas Trial Cause Nos. D150435-R and D160375-R ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On August 7, 2018, the trial court sentenced Justin Thomas Brooks on two convictions for injury to a child. Thomas filed notices of appeal on August 27, 2018. In each case, the trial court signed a certification in which the court certified that this is a plea-bargain case, the defendant has waived the right of appeal, 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 August 29, 1 2018, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeals unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeals. No response has been filed. Because the trial court’s certifications show the defendant does not have the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeals. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals. APPEALS DISMISSED. ________________________________ CHARLES KREGER Justice Submitted on October 2, 2018 Opinion Delivered October 3, 2018 Do Not Publish Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Horton, JJ. 2
