NUMBER 13-14-00741-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________ BUFORD RANDLE A/K/A RANDLE BUFORD, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. ____________________________________________________________ On appeal from the 148th District Court of Nueces County, Texas. ____________________________________________________________ ORDER OF ABATEMENT Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Garza Order Per Curiam Appellant, Buford Randle a/k/a Randle Buford, has filed a notice of appeal with this Court from his conviction in trial court cause number 12-CR-2890-E. The trial court has certified that this “is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal,” and “the defendant has waived the right of appeal.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2).

On December 19, 2014, we ordered appellant's counsel, John M. Lamerson, to, within thirty days, review the record and advise this Court as to whether appellant has a right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 44.3, 44.4. Counsel responded to this Court's order stating the appellant retained his right to appeal those matters raised by pretrial motion and ruled upon by the trial court. Counsel advises this Court that no amended certification has been filed.

Therefore, we ABATE this appeal and REMAND this cause to the trial court for a hearing to determine whether the appellant has the right of appeal. We further direct the trial court to issue findings of fact and conclusions of law regarding this issue. The trial court's amended certification, and any orders it enters shall be included in a supplemental clerk's record. The trial court is directed to cause the supplemental clerk's record to be filed with the Clerk of this Court within thirty days from the date of this order. Should the trial court require more time to comply with the directions of this Court, it shall request an extension prior to the expiration of this deadline.

It is so ORDERED.

PER CURIAM Do not publish.

TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

Delivered and filed the 12th day of February, 2015.
