San Antonio, Texas

December 6, 2017

No. 04-17-00736-CR

Porucha Denise PHILLIPS,

Appellant

v.

The STATE of Texas,

Appellee

From the 187th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2016CR9223A The Honorable Laura Lee Parker, Judge Presiding

ORDER

The trial court’s certification in this appeal states “this criminal case is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” The clerk’s record contains a written plea bargain, and the punishment assessed did not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant; Rule 25.2(a)(2) applies. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2).

This court must dismiss this appeal “if a certification that shows the defendant has a right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules.” Id. R. 25.2(d); see Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006).

We ORDER Appellant to cause an amended trial court certification to be filed in this court within THIRTY days of 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.). If no amended trial court certification is filed as ordered, this appeal will be dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d).

All other appellate deadlines are SUSPENDED pending further order of this court.
