Dayanara Baker, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE 433RD DISTRICT COURT OF COMAL COUNTY,
NO. CR2018-778D, THE HONORABLE DIB WALDRIP, JUDGE PRESIDING

ORDER AND MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

Appellant Dayanara Baker, acting pro se, filed a notice of appeal on October 29,

2025, but the clerk’s record does not contain the trial court’s certification of her right of appeal.

See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d) (“If the defendant is the appellant, the record must include the trial

court’s certification of the defendant’s right of appeal under Rule 25.2(a)(2).”). The Comal

County district clerk filed a letter informing this Court that the record of this cause contains no

trial court certification.

Accordingly, we abate this appeal and remand the cause to the trial court for entry

of a certification of Baker’s right of appeal. See id. R. 25.2(a)(2), 44.4. A supplemental clerk’s

record containing the trial court’s certification shall be filed with this Court no later than

January 9, 2026. See id. R. 34.5(c)(2).

It is ordered on December 10, 2025.
