NUMBER 13-26-00604-CR COURT OF APPEALS THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG MARK VASQUEZ, Appellant, v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee. ON APPEAL FROM THE 105TH DISTRICT COURT OF KLEBERG COUNTY, TEXAS MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Tijerina and Justices Cron and Fonseca Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Tijerina This cause is before the Court upon its own motion. On August 27, 2026, appellant filed a notice of appeal attempting to appeal a judgment of conviction in trial court cause number 25-CRF-0592. We now dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. Upon review of the documents before use, 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 August 28, 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 of appeal. See id. R. 25.2(d), 37.1, and 44.3. Accordingly, this case is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. JAIME TIJERINA Chief Justice Do not publish. TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b). Delivered and filed on the 1st day of October, 2026. 2
