Opinion
Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas August 24, 2021
No. 04-21-00314-CR
Jonathan TELLEZ, Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas, Appellee
From the County Court at Law No. 2, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 654235 Honorable Grace M. Uzomba, Judge Presiding
ORDER On June 29, 2021, appellant Jonathan Alexander Tellez was convicted of the offense of driving while intoxicated and sentenced pursuant to a plea agreement. On July 28, 2021, appellant filed a notice of appeal. On August 5, 2021, appellant’s trial counsel, Jeff Hohl, filed a motion to withdraw as appellant’s attorney in this appeal. No party has opposed the motion. On August 6, 2021, the trial court appointed Jaime Aldape as appellant’s counsel. Accordingly, we GRANT Mr. Hohl’s motion to withdraw.
The trial court’s certification in this appeal states that this criminal case, “is a plea- bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” Rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provides, “The appeal must be dismissed if a certification that shows the defendant has a right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules.” TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). It is therefore ORDERED that this appeal will be dismissed pursuant to Rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure unless appellant causes an amended trial court certification to be filed within thirty days from the date of this order, showing appellant has the right of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d); 37.1; see also Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005); Daniels v. State,110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, no pet.). All other appellate deadlines are SUSPENDED pending our resolution of the certification issue.
