                               IN THE COURT OF APPEALS

                 TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT

                                            TYLER, TEXAS

 ENUS LEWIS,                                                  §   APPEAL FROM THE 241ST
 APPELLANT

 V.                                                           §   JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT

 THE STATE OF TEXAS,
 APPELLEE                                                     §   SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS

                                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                            PER CURIAM
         Enus Lewis appeals from his conviction for assault on a public servant. The trial court’s
certification of Appellant’s right to appeal states that this is a plea-bargain case and Appellant has
no right of appeal. The certification is signed by Appellant and his counsel. See TEX. R. APP. P.
25.2(d). The clerk’s record also contains a waiver of appeal signed by Appellant and his counsel.
         When the defendant is the appellant, the record must include the trial court’s certification
of the defendant’s right of appeal. Id. Based on our review of the clerk’s record, the trial court’s
certification appears to accurately state that Appellant does not have the right to appeal. See Dears
v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (holding that court of appeals should review
clerk’s record to determine whether trial court’s certification is accurate). This Court must dismiss
an appeal “if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made
part of the record.” TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). Because the trial court did not grant Appellant the
right to appeal his conviction, we dismiss the appeal.
