NOS. 12-17-00361-CR 12-17-00362-CR IN THE COURT OF APPEALS TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT TYLER, TEXAS COURTLAND DEWAYNE LINDSAY, APPELLANT § APPEALS FROM THE V. § COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 2 THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE § SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS MEMORANDUM OPINION PER CURIAM Courtland Dewayne Lindsay appeals from his convictions for indecent exposure. On December 5, 2017, Appellant’s counsel filed a memorandum with this Court, in which counsel states that Appellant filed waivers of appeal after sentencing, that the trial court accepted the waivers, and that the record contains no certification granting Appellant the right to appeal. Accordingly, counsel stated that the appeals must be dismissed. When the defendant is the appellant, the record must include the trial court’s certification of the defendant’s right of appeal. 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[.]” Id. Accordingly, because the trial court did not grant Appellant the right to appeal his convictions, we dismiss the appeals. Opinion delivered December 13, 2017. Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
