I have received a copy of this certification. I have also been informed of my rights concerning any appeal of
this criminal case, including any right to file a pro se petition for discretionary review pursuant to Rule 68 of the
Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. I have been admonished that my attorney must mail a copy of the court of
appeals's judgment and opinion to my last known address and that I have only 30 days in which to file a pro se
petition for discretionary review in the court of appeals. TEX. R. APP. P. 68.2 I acknowledge that, if I wish to
appeal this case and if I am entitled to do so, it is my duty to inform my appellate attorney, by written
communication, of any change in the address at which I am currently living or any change in my current prison
unit. I understand that, because of appellate deadlines, if I fail to timely inform my appellate attorney of any
change in my address, I may lose the opportunity to file a pro se petition for discretionary review.

* “A defendant in a criminal case has the right of appeal under these rules. The trial court shall enter a certification of the defendant's
right to appeal in every case in which it enters a judgment of guilt or other appealable order. In a plea bargain case-that is, a case in
which a defendant's plea was guilty or nolo contendere and the punishment did not exceed the punishment recommended by the
prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant - a defendant may appeal only: (A) those matters that were raised by a written motion filed
and ruled on before trial, or (B) after getting the trial court's permission to appeal.” TEXAS RULES OF APPELLATE PROCEDURE
25.2(a)(2).
