V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 180th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 907765
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant was charged with possession of a controlled substance, namely, cocaine, weighing less than one gram, enhanced with two prior felony convictions. Appellant entered into a plea bargain agreement with the State in which the State would recommend that punishment be assessed at two years confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, Institutional Division. Appellant signed a written waiver of his right to appeal if the trial court accepted the plea bargain agreement.
Appellant pleaded guilty to the primary offense and true to the enhancement allegations. The trial court followed the plea bargain agreement in assessing punishment. Despite having waived the right to appeal, appellant filed notice of appeal. We hold the appeal must be dismissed. See Buck v. State, 45 S.W.3d 275, 278 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.); see also Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 219-20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000); Bushnell v. State, 975 S.W.2d 641, 642-44 (Tex.
