CHAD PIERCE, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 252nd District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause Nos. 87498, 87499 and 87500

MEMORANDUM OPINION ⁽¹⁾  

Chad Pierce was convicted of the offense of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle in Cause No. 87498, of the offense of evading detention by use of a motor vehicle in Cause No. 87499, and of the offense of forgery in Cause No. 87500. Pierce filed notice of appeal on October 15, 2004. In each case, the trial court entered a certification of the defendant's right to appeal in which the 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). The trial court's certifications have been provided to the Court of Appeals by the district clerk.

On October 21, 2004, we notified the parties that the appeals would be dismissed unless amended certifications were filed within thirty days of the date of the notices and made a part of the appellate records. See Tex. R. App. P. 37.1. The records have not been supplemented with amended certifications. Because a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record, the appeals must be dismissed. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.

APPEALS DISMISSED.
