                            Fourth Court of Appeals
                                   San Antonio, Texas

                                       No. 04-15-00024-CR

                                     Gary Wade RONNING,
                                           Appellant

                                                 v.

                                    THE STATE OF TEXAS,
                                          Appellee

                   From the 399th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                                Trial Court No. 2014CR10517W
                            Honorable Ray Olivarri, Judge Presiding

                                          ORDER
        Pursuant to a plea-bargain agreement, Gary Wade Ronning pled nolo contendere to
Assault-Family-2nd Offense and was sentenced to six years imprisonment and a $1500 fine in
accordance with the terms of his plea-bargain agreement. On December 18, 2014, the trial court
signed a certification of defendant’s right to appeal stating that this “is a plea-bargain case, and
the defendant has NO right of appeal.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). After Ronning filed a
notice of appeal, the trial court clerk sent copies of the certification and notice of appeal to this
court. See id. 25.2(e). The clerk’s record, which includes the trial court’s Rule 25.2(a)(2)
certification, has been filed. See id. 25.2(d).

         “In a plea bargain case ... a defendant may appeal only: (A) those matters that were raised
by written motion filed and ruled on before trial, or (B) after getting the trial court’s permission
to appeal.” Id. 25.2(a)(2). The clerk’s record, which contains a written plea bargain, establishes
the punishment assessed by the court does not exceed the punishment recommended by the
prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant. See id. The clerk’s record does not include a written
motion filed and ruled upon before trial; nor does it indicate that the trial court gave its
permission to appeal. See id. The trial court’s certification, therefore, appears to accurately
reflect that this is a plea-bargain case and that Ronning does not have a right to appeal. We must
dismiss an appeal “if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been
made part of the record.” Id. 25.2(d).

        This appeal will be dismissed pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 25.2(d),
unless an amended trial court certification showing that Ronning has the right to appeal is made
part of the appellate record by March 2, 2015. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d), 37.1; Daniels v.
State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, order).
      We ORDER all appellate deadlines be suspended until further order of the court.
