RUSSELL WILLIAM HOPE, Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the Criminal District Court

Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause Nos. 86685 and 86527




MEMORANDUM OPINION (1)

Russell William Hope was convicted and sentenced on two indictments for aggravated robbery and robbery and was sentenced in each case to 10 years of confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division. Hope filed notices of appeal on May 12, 2003. In each case, 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 certifications have been provided to the Court of Appeals by the district clerk.

On May 22, 2003, we notified the parties that the appeals would be dismissed unless amended certifications were filed within thirty days of the date of the notices and made part of the appellate records by June 21, 2003. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1. The records have not been supplemented with amended certifications. Because a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record, the appeals must be dismissed. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.

APPEALS DISMISSED.
