                               MEMORANDUM OPINION
                          Before PIRTLE and PARKER and DOSS, JJ.


       Pursuant to plea bargain agreements, Appellant, Nathan Gene Collins, was

convicted of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle,1 possession of a controlled substance


       1TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 31.07 (West 2016) (state jail felony). Appellant’s range of punishment
was enhanced by two prior state jail felony convictions. Id. at § 12.425 (a) (West 2019).
in an amount less than one gram,2 and bail jumping and failure to appear.3 He was

sentenced to five years confinement for each offense, with the sentences to run

concurrently. The trial court’s certifications of Appellant’s right of appeal reflect that these

are plea-bargained cases with no right of appeal and that Appellant has waived the right

of appeal.      Notwithstanding the certifications, Appellant filed a notice of appeal

challenging his convictions.


       We are required by Rule of Appellate Procedure 25.2(d) to dismiss an appeal “if a

certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of

the record.” By letter of October 28, 2019, we notified Appellant of the consequences of

the certifications and invited him to file amended certifications providing a right of appeal

or demonstrate other grounds for continuing the appeals by November 7.                              We

subsequently granted Appellant an extension to December 16 to file a response.

Appellant has not responded to the court’s letter to date.


       Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals based on the trial court’s certifications. TEX.

R. APP. P. 25.2(d).
