In The Court of Appeals Seventh District of Texas at Amarillo ________________________ No. 07-17-00119-CR ________________________ JOANNA SUE COULTER, APPELLANT V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE On Appeal from the 108th District Court Potter County, Texas Trial Court No. 73,437-E; Honorable Bradley S. Underwood, Presiding June 28, 2017 MEMORANDUM OPINION Before QUINN, C.J., and CAMPBELL and PIRTLE, JJ. Pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, Appellant, JoAnna Sue Coulter, was convicted of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle,1 sentenced to six months in a state jail facility, and assessed a $500 fine. The trial court's certification of Appellant’s right of appeal reflects that Appellant’s case is a plea-bargained case with no right of appeal 1 TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.07 (West 2016). and that Appellant waived the right of appeal. The certification notwithstanding, Appellant filed a notice of appeal through her court-appointed trial counsel, challenging her conviction. By letter dated June 7, 2017, this court notified Appellant of the consequences of her certification and invited her to file an amended certification showing a right of appeal or demonstrate other grounds for continuing the appeal on or before June 19. Appellant has not filed an amended certification reflecting a right of appeal or a response establishing good cause for continuing this appeal. Consequently, we have no alternative but to dismiss the appeal based on the certification signed by the trial court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). It is so ordered. Per Curiam Do not publish. 2
