Opinion

COURT OF APPEALS SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH NO. 02-11-00494-CR

PATRICIA ANN THOMAS APPELLANT V. THE STATE OF TEXAS STATE

---------- FROM CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT NO. 1 OF TARRANT COUNTY ---------- MEMORANDUM OPINION1 ---------- Appellant waived her constitutional and statutory rights, judicially confessed to committing theft, and was convicted of that offense. The trial court signed a certification of appellant’s right to appeal, stating that this “is a plea- bargained case and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d). Nonetheless, appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal. By letter, we notified appellant that unless she filed, before November 21, 2011, a See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4. response showing grounds for continuing the appeal, the appeal could be dismissed. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d), 44.3. Appellant filed a response in which she requested that we dismiss the appeal. In accordance with the trial court’s certification, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a), (d), 43.2(f); Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim.

App. 2006).
