                                           The STATE of Texas,
                                                 Appellee

                      From the 379th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                            Trial Court Nos. 2017CR6794 & 2017CR6795
                               Honorable Ron Rangel, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting:           Sandee Bryan Marion, Chief Justice
                   Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
                   Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice

Delivered and Filed: December 11, 2019

DISMISSED

           The trial court’s certifications in these related appeals state: “[T]his criminal case is a plea-

bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.”

           “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.” TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). The clerk’s records, which contain written plea bargains,

establish 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 records do not include written
                                                                      04-19-00726-CR & 04-19-00727-CR


motions filed and ruled upon before trial, nor do they indicate the trial court gave its permission to

appeal. See id. The trial court’s certifications, therefore, appear to accurately reflect that these are

plea bargain cases and appellant 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.” TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). We issued an order stating

these appeals would be dismissed unless amended trial court certifications were made part of the

appellate record by December 2, 2019. See id.; Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San

Antonio 2003, no pet.). No such amended trial court certifications have been filed.

        Accordingly, these appeals are dismissed pursuant to Rule 25.2(d).
