MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-11-00376-CR

Rogelio Herrera GUERRERO, Appellant

v.

The STATE of Texas, Appellee

From the 379th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2010CR12186 Honorable Ron Rangel, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting: Catherine Stone, Chief Justice Karen Angelini, Justice Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice

Delivered and Filed: July 27, 2011

DISMISSED

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.” 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; therefore, the trial court’s certification accurately

reflects that the underlying case is a plea-bargain case. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). 04-11-00376-CR

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). On June 13, 2011, we ordered that this

appeal would be dismissed pursuant to rule 25.2(d) unless an amended trial court certification

showing that the appellant has the right of appeal was made part of the appellate record by July

13, 2011. 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.). No

response was filed. In the absence of an amended trial court certification showing that the

appellant has the right of appeal, rule 25.2(d) requires this court to dismiss this appeal.

Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
