                                          Before Morriss, C.J.,
Carter and Moseley, JJ.
                                        Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

                                                      MEMORANDUM OPINION
 
            Paul Ross
Kuykendall has filed a notice of appeal from the revocation of his community
supervision.  We have now received the
certification of Kuykendall’s right of appeal as required by Rule 25.2 of the
Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure.  See Tex.
R. App. P. 25.2.  That
certification states that Kuykendall waived his right of appeal.
            Unless
a certification, showing that a defendant has the right of appeal, is in the
record, we must dismiss the appeal.  See Tex.
R. App. P. 25.2(d).  Because the
trial court’s certification affirmatively shows that Kuykendall has waived his
right of appeal, and because the record before us does not reflect that the
certification is incorrect, see Dears v.
State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005), we must dismiss the
appeal.
            We dismiss
the appeal for want of jurisdiction and overrule Kuykendall’s motion for
appointment of counsel.

R. Morriss, III
