EARL RAYMOND MARS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 221st District Court
Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 05-09-08103 CR

MEMORANDUM OPINION
 Earl Raymond Mars was convicted and sentenced on an indictment for arson.  Mars
filed a notice of appeal on July 14, 2006.  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 October 24, 2006, 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.
