In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana

No. 06-13-00125-CR

ANGELA RODGERS, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 6th District Court Lamar County, Texas Trial Court No. 24835

Before Morriss, C.J., Carter and Moseley, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss MEMORANDUM OPINION Angela Rodgers has filed a notice of appeal from her conviction. We have now received the certification of Rodger’s right of appeal as required by Rule 25.2 of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2. That certification states that Rodgers waived her right of appeal.

Unless a certification showing that a defendant has the right of appeal is in the record, we must dismiss the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). Because the trial court’s certification affirmatively shows Rodgers has waived her right of appeal and because the record before us does not reflect that the certification is incorrect, see Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005), we must dismiss the appeal.

We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
