Kenneth Homer Koch, Jr. v. State
Kenneth Homer Koch, Jr. v. State
Opinion
Kenneth Homer Koch, Jr., was convicted of the offense of burglary of a habitation in Cause Nos. 96070, 96072 and 96073. Koch filed notice of appeal on May 5, 2006. 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 16, 2006, 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 a part of the appellate records. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1. The parties have not identified any issues unrelated to the appellant's convictions and 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.
