                          MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On August 9, 2016, the trial court sentenced Freddie Lee Weathersby1 on a

conviction for possession of a controlled substance. Weathersby filed a notice of

appeal on September 28, 2016. The district clerk has provided the trial court’s

certification to the Court of Appeals. The trial court certified that this is a plea-

      1
       In the Notice of Filing Notice of Appeal form from the District Clerk,
appellant is identified as “Freddie Lee Weathersby [a/k/a] Freddie Lee
Weatherby[.]”

bargain case and the defendant has no right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P.

25.2(a)(2).

      On September 30, 2016, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the

appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. No

response has been filed. Because the record does not contain a certification that

shows the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex.

R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
