Fourth Court of Appeals
San Antonio, Texas
MEMORANDUM OPINION
No. 04-18-00073-CR
Jose M. FLORES,
Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas,
Appellee
From the 175th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
Trial Court No. 2017CR8346W
Honorable Catherine Torres-Stahl, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Rebeca C. Martinez, Justice
Patricia O. Alvarez, Justice
Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
Delivered and Filed: March 28, 2018
DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION
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.” Rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure provides that an 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.” TEX. R. APP. P.
25.2(d). The clerk’s record contains a written plea bargain, and the punishment assessed did not
exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant; therefore,
the clerk’s record supports the trial court’s certification that defendant has no right of appeal. See
04-18-00073-CR
TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). In addition, appellant’s counsel has filed a document in which he states
that he has reviewed the clerk’s record and can find no right of appeal for Appellant; counsel
concedes that the trial court’s certification stating the defendant has no right of appeal is correct.
In light of the record presented, we agree with appellant’s counsel that the defendant has no right
of appeal; therefore, Rule 25.2(d) requires this court to dismiss this appeal. TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d).
Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d).
