COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
MICHAEL SENSINGER, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
On Appeal from the 347th District Court
of Nueces County, Texas.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Rodriguez and Garza
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam
Appellant, Michael Sensinger, attempts to appeal a conviction for injury to an elderly individual. The trial court has certified that Athe defendant has waived the right of appeal.@ See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).
On March 22, 2011, this Court notified appellant=s counsel of the trial court=s certification and ordered counsel to: (1) review the record; (2) determine whether appellant has a right to appeal; and (3) forward to this Court, by letter, counsel=s findings as to whether appellant has a right to appeal, or, alternatively, advise this Court as to the existence of any amended certification.
On July 11, 2011, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court. Counsel=s response does not establish: (1) that the certification currently on file with this Court is incorrect, or (2) that appellant otherwise has a right to appeal. The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed if the trial court=s certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); see Tex. R. App. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4.
Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED. Any pending motions are dismissed as moot.
PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
