Rex Earl Ramsey v. State

In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ________________ NO. 09-16-00146-CR ________________ REX EARL RAMSEY, Appellant V. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee __________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. 15-22101 __________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On April 22, 2016, the trial court sentenced Rex Earl Ramsey on a conviction for felony theft. Ramsey filed a notice of appeal on April 29, 2016. The district clerk has provided the trial court’s certification to the Court of Appeals. The trial 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). On May 3, 2016, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. No response has 1 been filed. 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. APPEAL DISMISSED. ________________________________ LEANNE JOHNSON Justice Submitted on May 31, 2016 Opinion Delivered June 1, 2016 Do Not Publish Before Kreger, Horton, and Johnson, JJ. 2
