                                                             v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,                                                                 Appellee.

                            On appeal from the 28th District Court

of Nueces County, Texas.

                               MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Benavides, Vela, and Perkes

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, Angela Zaneis a/k/a Angela Hale, attempts to appeal convictions for possession of methamphetamine.  The trial court has certified in both cases that this Ais a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.@  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

On July 12, 2011, this Court notified appellant=s counsel of the trial court=s certifications and ordered counsel to: (1) review the record; (2) determine whether appellant has a right to appeal; and (3) forward to this Court, by letter, counsel=s findings as to whether appellant has a right to appeal, or, alternatively, advise this Court as to the existence of any amended certifications.

On August 2, 2011, counsel filed a letter brief with this Court.  Counsel=s response does not establish that the certifications currently on file with this Court are incorrect or that appellant otherwise has a right to appeal. 

The Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provide that an appeal must be dismissed if the trial court=s certification does not show that the defendant has the right of appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); see Tex. R. App. P. 37.1, 44.3, 44.4.  Accordingly, these appeals are DISMISSED. Appellant counsel’s motions to withdraw, previously carried with the case, are GRANTED.

PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the

29th day of August, 2011.
