MICHAEL SHAUN EPLIN, APPELLANT
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, APPELLEE
On Appeal from the 320th District Court
Potter County, Texas
Trial Court No. 70-320-D; Honorable Don R. Emerson, Presiding
September 21, 2015
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before CAMPBELL and HANCOCK and PIRTLE, JJ.
Appellant, Michael Shaun Eplin, was convicted of evading arrest or detention
with a vehicle. The trial court's certification of Appellant’s right to appeal filed in the
case reflects that Appellant's case is a plea-bargained case with no right of appeal and
that Appellant waived the right of appeal. The certification notwithstanding, Appellant
filed a notice of appeal challenging his conviction.
By letter dated August 19, 2015, this court notified Appellant of the
consequences of the certification and invited him to file an amended certification
showing a right to appeal or demonstrate other grounds for continuing the appeal, on or
before August 31, 2015. Appellant has not filed an amended certification reflecting a
right of appeal or a response establishing good cause for continuing this appeal.
Consequently, we have no alternative but to dismiss the appeal based on the
certification signed by the trial court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d).
It is so ordered.
