Dwayne Keith Lopez v. State
Dwayne Keith Lopez v. State
Opinion
In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-13-00414-CR ____________________ DWAYNE KEITH LOPEZ, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee _______________________________________________________ ______________ On Appeal from the 221st District Court Montgomery County, Texas Trial Cause No. 12-11-12182 CR ________________________________________________________ _____________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On August 20, 2013, the trial court sentenced Dwayne Keith Lopez on a conviction for driving while intoxicated. Lopez filed a notice of appeal on August 29, 2013. The certification the trial court signed that related to the defendant’s right to appeal indicates 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 September 13, 2013, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. No response has been filed. 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.
