Fourth Court of Appeals
                                     San Antonio, Texas
                                          February 17, 2023

                                        No. 04-23-00017-CR

                                Hector Enrique LARA-SANCHEZ,
                                            Appellant

                                                  v.

                                       The STATE of Texas,
                                             Appellee

                   From the 187th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                                 Trial Court No. 2022CR3039
                         Honorable Stephanie R. Boyd, Judge Presiding

                                           ORDER
       The trial court’s certification in this appeal states “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 the defendant has a 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).
        We ORDER Appellant to cause an amended trial court certification to be filed in this
court within THIRTY days of the date of this order showing Appellant has the right of appeal.
See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d), 37.1; see also Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App.
2005); Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, no pet.). If no
amended trial court certification is filed as ordered, this appeal will be dismissed. See TEX. R.
APP. P. 25.2(d).
       All other appellate deadlines are SUSPENDED pending further order of this court.

                                                       _________________________________

court on this 17th day of February, 2023.
