TRASHEKA RUDOLPH, Appellant



V.



THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 252nd District Court

Jefferson County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 07-01445




MEMORANDUM OPINION

On October 8, 2007, the trial court sentenced Trasheka Rudolph on a conviction for felony criminal mischief. Rudolph filed a notice of appeal on November 2, 2007. The trial court entered a certification of the defendant's right to appeal in which the 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). The district clerk has provided the trial court's certification to the Court of Appeals.

On November 7, 2007, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the trial court filed an amended certification within thirty days of the date of the notice and made it a part of the appellate record. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1. The trial court has not supplemented the record with an amended certification.

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 for want of jurisdiction.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
