Fourth Court of Appeals
                                        San Antonio, Texas
                                   MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                           No. 04-19-00014-CR

                                          Clinton Lee GAMBLE,
                                                 Appellant

                                                     v.

                                          The STATE of Texas,
                                                Appellee

                       From the 198th Judicial District Court, Kerr County, Texas
                                       Trial Court No. B17360
                               Honorable Rex Emerson, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting:           Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
                   Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
                   Irene Rios, Justice

Delivered and Filed: March 27, 2019

DISMISSED

           The trial court’s certification in this appeal states that “this criminal case is a plea-bargain

case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” The clerk’s record contains a written plea bargain,

and the punishment assessed did not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and

agreed to by the defendant; Rule 25.2(a)(2) applies. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). This court

must dismiss this appeal “if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not

been made part of the record under these rules.” Id. R. 25.2(d); see Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d
675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006).
                                                                                   04-19-00014-CR

       On February 13, 2019, we notified Appellant that this appeal would be dismissed under

Rule 25.2(d) unless an amended trial court certification showing that Appellant has the right of

appeal was made part of the appellate record by March 13, 2019. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d),

37.1; see also Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 613 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005); Daniels v. State, 110
S.W.3d 174, 176 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, no pet.). To date, no response has been filed.

       Absent an amended trial court certification showing that Appellant has the right of appeal,

Rule 25.2(d) requires this court to dismiss this appeal. See Dears, 154 S.W.3d at 613; Daniels,
110 S.W.3d at 176. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
