LESLIE BRIANNA
PROCHNOW-RODRIGUEZ, Appellant,
v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee.
ON APPEAL FROM THE 36TH DISTRICT COURT
OF SAN PATRICIO COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Peña, West, and Fonseca
Memorandum Opinion by Justice Fonseca
This cause is before the Court upon its own motion. On June 17, 2026, appellant
filed a notice of appeal attempting to appeal a judgment of conviction in trial court cause
number S-25-3736CR. We now dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
Upon review of the documents before us, the trial court has certified that this is a
plea bargain case and appellant “has NO right of appeal” and that he “waived the right of
appeal.” See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). On June 18, 2026, we ordered appellant’s
counsel to review the record and determine whether appellant had the right to appeal.
Appellant’s counsel responded to the notice. Upon review of the record and documents
before us, we are of the opinion that appellant waived the 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 to appeal.
See id. R. 25.2(d), 37.1, and 44.3. Accordingly, this case is dismissed for want of
jurisdiction.
