                        _______________________________

Before REAVIS and CAMPBELL and HANCOCK, JJ.

                                MEMORANDUM OPINION

       Pursuant to a plea of guilty, appellant Robert Earl Patterson was convicted of

possession of a controlled substance, enhanced. Proceeding pro se, appellant filed notice

of appeal challenging the conviction.

       We have received a certification of right of appeal by which the trial court certified

that the underlying case was a plea-bargain case with no right of appeal. By letter, dated

July 12, 2006, this Court notified appellant that the certification indicated that he had no

right of appeal. In this letter, we further notified appellant that the appeal was subject to
dismissal unless he provided this Court with an amended certification providing that he has

the right of appeal or otherwise demonstrates that there exists other grounds for continuing

the appeal by August 1, 2006. See TEX . R. APP . P. 25.2(a)(2), (d); Stowe v. State, 124
S.W.3d 228, 232 (Tex.App.–El Paso 2003, no pet.). No amended certification reflecting

a right to appeal has been filed and appellant has failed to demonstrate other grounds for

continuing the appeal.

       Therefore, the appeal is dismissed.
