On Appeal from the Criminal District Court
Jefferson County, Texas
Trial Cause No. 14-20109

MEMORANDUM OPINION
On July 27, 2015, the trial court sentenced Beulah Johnson on a conviction
for credit card abuse. Johnson filed a notice of appeal on August 5, 2015. 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 August 12, 2015, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the
appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. Johnson
1
filed a response but failed to establish that the trial court’s certification should be
amended. 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.
