JOHN GRANT, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 252nd District Court
Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 99236

MEMORANDUM OPINION
 John Grant was convicted and sentenced on an indictment for delivery of a simulated
controlled substance.  Grant filed a notice of appeal on March 26, 2007.  The trial court
entered a certification of the defendant's right to appeal in which the court 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).  The trial court's certification has been provided to the Court of Appeals by the
district clerk.
	On April 5, 2007, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed unless
an amended certification was filed within thirty days of the date of the notice and made a part
of the appellate record.  See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1.  The record has not been supplemented
with an amended certification.
	Because a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been
made part of the record, the appeal must be dismissed.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). 
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
	APPEAL DISMISSED.
                                                                            __________________________________

                                                                                                         Justice
