Litika Burks APPELLANT v.
COURT OF APPEALS
SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS
FORT WORTH
The State of Texas
STATE
MEMORANDUM OPINION1
Pursuant to a plea bargain, the trial court convicted Appellant Litika Burks upon her plea of guilty to the state jail felony of possession of less than one gram of a controlled substance, namely: cocaine, and sentenced her to seven months' confinement. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal.
The trial court's certification states that this is a plea-bargained case and that Appellant has no right of appeal. Accordingly, we informed Appellant by letter on March 24, 2011, that this case was subject to dismissal unless she or any party showed grounds for continuing the appeal on or before Monday April 4, 2011.2 Appellant's response does not show grounds for continuing the appeal.
We therefore dismiss this appeal.3
