LLOYD D. GORDON, Appellant


V.


THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 252nd District Court
Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 90256




MEMORANDUM OPINION
	Lloyd D. Gordon was convicted and sentenced on an indictment for possession of
a controlled substance.  Gordon filed a notice of appeal on July 6, 2005.  The trial court
entered a certification of the defendant's right to appeal in which the 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).  The trial court's certification has been provided to the Court of Appeals by the
district clerk.
	On July 8, 2005, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed unless
an amended certification was filed within thirty days of the date of the notice and made a
part of the appellate record.  See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1.  The parties have not identified
any issues unrelated to the appellant's conviction and the record has not been supplemented
with an amended certification.  Because a certification that shows the defendant has the
right of appeal has not been made part of the record, the appeal must be dismissed.  See
Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).
	Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
	APPEAL DISMISSED.
