Memorandum Opinion
Per Curiam
 
Appellant,
Devin Lerma, attempts to appeal her conviction for possession of methadone.  The
trial court has certified that Athe defendant has waived the right of
appeal.@  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

On
June 8, 2010, 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
July 4, 2010, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court.  Counsel=s response does not establish that the certification
currently on file with this Court is incorrect or 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.
