FREDDIE LEE WEATHERSBY v. THE STATE OF TEXAS (2016)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On August 9, 2016, the trial court sentenced Freddie Lee Weathersby ¹ on a conviction for possession of a controlled substance. Weathersby filed a notice of appeal on September 28, 2016. The district clerk has provided the trial court's certification to the Court of Appeals. The trial 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).

On September 30, 2016, we notified the parties that we would dismiss the appeal unless the appellant established grounds for continuing the appeal. No response has been filed. Because the record does not contain a certification that shows the defendant has the right of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
