                             COURT OF APPEALS

                   THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                     CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG

JESICA ALYS MASCORRO,                                                        Appellant,

                                            v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                                           Appellee.

                    On appeal from the 36th District Court
                         of Aransas County, Texas.

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
    Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Benavides and Perkes
                  Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      Appellant, Jesica Alys Mascorro, attempts to appeal her conviction for possession

of cocaine. The trial court has certified in these cases that this “is a plea-bargain case,

and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2).
       On July 1, 2015, this Court notified appellant’s counsel of the trial court’s

certifications and ordered counsel to: (1) review the record; (2) determine whether

appellant has a right to appeal; and (3) forward to this Court, by letter, counsel’s findings

as to whether appellant has a right to appeal, or, alternatively, advise this Court as to the

existence of any amended certifications. On July 10, 2015, counsel filed a letter brief

with this Court stating that she has reviewed the trial court’s file and appellant does not

have the right to appeal.

       The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed

if the trial court’s certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal.

TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d); see TEX. R. APP. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4. Accordingly, this appeal is

DISMISSED.

                                                                       PER CURIAM

Do not publish.
TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the
23rd day of July, 2015.
