Because the trial court’s certificate of right of appeal that Love signed indicates that the underlying criminal case was a plea bargain case and Love has no right to appeal, and because it also indicates that Love waived his right to appeal, this appeal must be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d) (“The appeal must be dismissed if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules.”); Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006) (plea bargain); Monreal v. State, 99 S.W.3d 615, 622 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003) (waiver of appeal). For the reasons stated, this appeal is dismissed.1 TOM GRAY Chief Justice Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Davis, and Justice Scoggins Appeal dismissed Opinion delivered and filed November 23, 2016 [CR25] A motion for rehearing may be filed within 15 days after the judgment of this Court is rendered.
