The trial court’s certification in this appeal states that the criminal case, “is a plea-bargain
case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” The certification further states, “[T]he
defendant has waived the right of appeal.” Rule 25.2(d) of the Texas Rules of Appellate
Procedure provides, “The appeal must be dismissed if a certification that shows the defendant
has a right of appeal has not been made part of the record under these rules.” TEX. R. APP. P.
25.2(d). It is therefore ORDERED that this appeal will be dismissed pursuant to Rule 25.2(d) of
the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure unless appellant causes amended trial court certifications
to be filed within thirty days from the date of this order, showing appellant has the right of
appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P.25.2(d); 37.1; see also Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim.
App. 2005); Daniels v. State,110 S.W.3d 174 (Tex. App.—San Antonio 2003, no pet.). It if
further ORDERED that the district clerk file, by January 5, 2023, a supplemental electronic
clerk’s record containing the Court Admonishments, the Waiver, Consent to Stipulation of
Testimony and Stipulations, and all other documents relating to the defendant’s plea bargain. All
other appellate deadlines are SUSPENDED pending our resolution of the certification issue.
