Isidro Juan Flores v. State

Fourth Court of Appeals San Antonio, Texas December 29, 2016 No. 04-16-00804-CR Isidro Juan FLORES, Appellant v. The State of TEXAS, Appellee From the 379th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2016CR5527 Honorable Ron Rangel, Judge Presiding ORDER Isidro Juan Flores entered into a plea bargain with the State, pursuant to which Flores pleaded nolo contendere to sexual assault of a child. The trial court imposed sentence in accordance with the agreement and signed a certificate stating this “is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). Flores timely filed a notice of appeal. The clerk’s record, which includes the trial court’s rule 25.2(a)(2) certification and a written plea bargain agreement, has been filed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). This court must dismiss an appeal “if a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record.” Id. The clerk’s record establishes the punishment assessed by the court does not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). The record also appears to support the trial court’s certification that Flores does not have a right to appeal. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005) (holding that court of appeals should review clerk’s record to determine whether trial court’s certification is accurate). Flores is hereby given notice that this appeal will be dismissed pursuant to rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure unless an amended certification showing that he has the right to appeal is made part of the appellate record by January 19, 2017. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d); Daniels v. State, 110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, order), disp. on merits, No. 04-03-00176-CR, 2003 WL 21508347 (July 2, 2003, pet. ref’d) (not designated for publication). We order all appellate deadlines suspended until further order of the court. We further order the clerk of this court to serve copies of this order on the attorneys of record and the court reporter. _________________________________ Luz Elena D.
