MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Hinojosa, Rodriguez, and Castillo
Opinion Per Curiam

         Appellant, KENNETH CRISSUP, attempts to appeal a conviction for sexual
assault and sexual assault of a child.  The trial court has certified 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 September 9, 2004, this Court notified appellant’s counsel of the trial
court’s certification 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 certification.
         On October 7, 2004, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court.  Counsel’s
response does not establish (1) that the certification currently on file with this Court
is incorrect or (2) that appellant otherwise has a 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.  Any pending motions are denied as moot.

                                                      PER CURIAM

Do not publish.  Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
Memorandum Opinion delivered and filed this
the 28th day of October, 2004.
