Adrian Jacob v. State
Adrian Jacob v. State
Opinion
On March 30, 2009, the trial court sentenced Adrian Jacob on a conviction for burglary of a building. Jacob filed a notice of appeal on April 15, 2009. 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 district clerk has provided the trial court's certification to the Court of Appeals. On April 20, 2009, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. The appellant filed a response but failed to establish that the trial court's certification should be amended. Because the record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
