Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-25-00130-CR

Kelvin Malave, Jr., Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE 21ST DISTRICT COURT OF LEE COUNTY, NO. 10,511, THE HONORABLE JOHN WINKELMANN, JUDGE PRESIDING

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Appellant Kelvin Malave, Jr. seeks to appeal a judgment of conviction for claiming a lottery prize by fraud. See Tex. Gov’t Code 466.308(a), (c)(1). The trial court has certified that (1) this is a plea-bargain case for which Malave has no right of appeal and that (2) Malave has waived the right of appeal. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d).
