MEMORANDUM OPINION

 

No. 04-11-00148-CR

 

Alfred Lee WALKER,

Appellant

 

v.

 

The STATE of Texas,

Appellee

 

From the 144th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas

Trial Court No. 2008CR1016

Honorable Catherine Torres-Stahl, Judge Presiding

 

PER CURIAM

 

Sitting:          Rebecca Simmons, Justice

                     Steven C. Hilbig, Justice

                     Marialyn Barnard, Justice

 

Delivered and Filed:  April 13, 2011

 

DISMISSED

 

On February 24, 2011, we notified the appellant that 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.”  Additionally, the clerk’s record contained a written waiver signed by the appellant pursuant to which he entered a plea of no contest.  The trial court’s judgment also reflected that there was a plea bargain agreement, 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 reflected that the criminal case is a plea-bargain case.  See Tex R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

In our February 24, 2011 order, we warned the appellant that “[this] appeal must be dismissed if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules.”  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).  We ordered that this appeal would be dismissed pursuant to rule 25.2(d) unless the appellant caused an amended trial court certification to be filed by March 28, 2011, that showed the appellant has the right of appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d), 37.1; see also Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006); Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, no pet.).  No response was filed.  Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal.
