Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, Broderick Smith, attempts to appeal a conviction for graffiti.  The trial court has certified that Athe defendant has waived the right of appeal.@  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

On July 26, 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 September 7, 2010, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court.  Counsel=s response does not establish:  (1) that the certification currently on file with this Court is incorrect, or (2) 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. 

PER CURIAM
