Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ________________

NO. 09-15-00009-CR ________________

RICHARD BROUSSARD, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee __________________________________________________________________

On Appeal from the Criminal District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 14-19501 __________________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On December 15, 2014, the trial court sentenced Richard Broussard on a

conviction for aggravated assault. Broussard filed a notice of appeal on January 6, 2015.

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).

On January 8, 2015, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal

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

1 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.
