JOCELYN HERNANDEZ APPELLANT

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS STATE

----------

FROM THE 97TH DISTRICT COURT OF MONTAGUE COUNTY TRIAL COURT NO. 2015-0127M-CR

MEMORANDUM OPINION1

Appellant Jocelyn Hernandez attempts to appeal from her conviction for

aggravated assault.2 Hernandez pleaded guilty pursuant to a plea bargain, and

1 See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4. 2 The trial court’s original judgment incorrectly stated that Hernandez was convicted of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. The trial court subsequently granted Hernandez’s “Motion To Modify, Correct, Or Reform Judgment” and ordered that the original judgment be reformed to strike out the language “with a deadly weapon.” in accordance with the plea bargain, the trial court sentenced her to two years’

confinement. The trial court’s certification of her right to appeal states that this

case “is a plea bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal” and “the

defendant has waived the right of appeal.” See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

On January 8, 2016, we notified Hernandez that this appeal could be

dismissed based on the trial court’s certification unless she or any party desiring

to continue the appeal filed a response on or before January 19, 2016, showing

grounds for continuing the appeal.3 See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d), 44.3. No

response has been filed.

In accordance with the trial court’s certification, we therefore dismiss this

appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d), 43.2(f).
