MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Hinojosa, Yanez and Garza
Opinion Per Curiam
 
         Appellant, Morgan Lusk, attempts to appeal a conviction for possession of
cocaine.  The trial court has 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).
         On January 26, 2004, this Court notified appellant’s counsel of the trial court’s
certification  and ordered counsel to: (1) review the record; (2) determine whether
appellant has a right to appeal; and (3) forward to this Court, by letter, counsel’s
findings as to whether appellant has a right to appeal, or, alternatively, advise this
Court as to the existence of any amended certification.
         On February 27, 2004, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court.  Counsel’s
response fails to establish either that the certification currently on file with this Court
is incorrect or that appellant otherwise has a right to appeal.  
         The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be
dismissed if the trial court’s certification does not show that the defendant has the
right of appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); see Tex. R. App. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4.
Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.  Any pending motions are denied as moot.
 
     PER CURIAM
 
Do not publish.  Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
Memorandum opinion delivered and filed this
the 1st day of April, 2004.
