JAMES ERICK JOSEPH, Appellant


V.


THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the Criminal District Court
Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 87265




MEMORANDUM OPINION (1)
	James Erick Joseph was convicted and sentenced for sexual assault.  Joseph filed
a notice of appeal on January 9, 2004.  The trial court entered a certification of the
defendant's right to appeal in which the court certified 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 trial court's
certification has been provided to the Court of Appeals by the district clerk.
	On January 14, 2004, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed
unless an amended certification was filed within thirty days of the date of the notice and
made a part of the appellate record.  See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1.  The record has not been
supplemented with an amended certification.  Because a certification that shows the
defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record, the appeal must be
dismissed.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).
	Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
	APPEAL DISMISSED.
