                On Appeal from the 252nd District Court
                       Jefferson County, Texas
                       Trial Cause No. 18-28620
__________________________________________________________________

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      On November 19, 2018, the trial court sentenced Lonnie Lee Blythe1 on a

conviction for possession of a controlled substance. Blythe filed a notice of appeal

on December 18, 2018. The district clerk has provided the trial court’s certification

to the Court of Appeals. The trial court 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).


      1
       The trial court’s judgment identifies Blythe as Lonnie Lee Blythe a/k/a
Linnie Lee Blythe Jr. a/k/a Lonnie Blythe.
                                        1
      On January 2, 2019, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal

unless Blythe established grounds for continuing the appeal. No response has been

filed. Because the record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant

has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
