In The
Court of Appeals
Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont

NO. 09-08-177 CR

REX EDWARD BULLARD, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Orange County, Texas
Trial Cause No. A-070454-R
On March 18, 2008, the trial court sentenced Rex Edward Bullard on a conviction for burglary of a habitation. Bullard filed a notice of appeal on April 9, 2008. The trial court entered a certification of the defendant's right of 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 April 14, 2008, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless an amended certification was filed within fifteen days of the date of the notice and made a part of the appellate record. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(f). The record has not been supplemented 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.
