                                  MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                          No. 04-19-00407-CR

                                            Brady DUPREE,
                                               Appellant

                                                    v.

                                         The STATE of Texas,
                                               Appellee

                      From the 290th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                                   Trial Court No. 2019CR3412W
                               Honorable Jennifer Pena, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting:          Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
                  Irene Rios, Justice
                  Beth Watkins, Justice

Delivered and Filed: July 31, 2019

DISMISSED

           The clerk’s record has been filed in this case. The clerk’s record contains the trial court’s

Rule 25.2 certification, which does not show appellant has the right of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P.

25.2. We issued an order notifying appellant that this appeal would be dismissed if two conditions

were met: (1) a certification or amended certification showing appellant has the right of appeal has

not been made part of the record; and (2) the trial court’s certification is not defective. See id. R.

25.2(d) (requiring us to dismiss a criminal appeal if a certification that shows the defendant has

the right of appeal has not been made part of the record). Because no amended certification
                                                                                        04-19-00407-CR


showing appellant has the right of appeal has been made part of the appellate record, the only issue

is whether the trial court’s certification is defective in the notification of the defendant’s appellate

rights. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (holding court of appeals must

determine whether the certification is defective).

        The trial court’s certification states this is a plea bargain case and the defendant has no

right of appeal. See R. 25.2(a); see also TEX. CODE CRIM. PROC. ANN. art. 44.02. The clerk’s record

establishes the punishment assessed by the trial court does not exceed the punishment

recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant in the plea bargain agreement. See

R. 25.2(a). The clerk’s record also does not show the trial court granted appellant permission to

appeal or contain any matters that were raised by written motion and ruled on before trial. See id.

Appellant’s counsel has not represented to this court that the trial court’s certification is defective

in the notification of the defendant’s appellate rights. We conclude the trial court’s certification is

not defective in its notification of the defendant’s appellate rights. Accordingly, we must dismiss

this appeal. See id. R. 25.2(d).
