MEMORANDUM OPINION

On December 14, 2007, the trial court sentenced Lamar Gregory White on convictions for evading detention by using a vehicle, aggravated assault on a public servant, and burglary of a habitation. White filed notices of appeal on January 9, 2008. The trial court entered certifications of the defendant's right to appeal in which the court certified that these are plea-bargain cases and the defendant has no right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). The district clerk has provided the trial court's certifications to the Court of Appeals.

On January 15, 2008, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeals unless the trial court filed amended certifications within thirty days of the date of the notices and made them part of the appellate records. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1. The trial court has not supplemented the records with amended certifications.

Because the records do not contain certifications that show the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeals. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.

APPEALS DISMISSED.
