Court of Appeals

First District of Texas

NO. 01-04-00991-CR

FORTUNATA PRO AGUILAR, Appellant


V.


THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee





On Appeal from the 185th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 982353




 

MEMORANDUM OPINION

               Appellant, Fortunata Pro Aguilar, pleaded guilty to the offense of driving while intoxicated with a child passenger and, in accordance with the plea bargain agreement, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement in state jail for six months. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal and a motion for new trial that the trial court denied. We dismiss for lack of jurisdiction.

               In a plea-bargained case in which the punishment assessed does not exceed the plea agreement, a defendant may appeal only those matters that were raised by written motion filed and ruled on before trial, or after obtaining the trial court’s permission to appeal. Griffin v. State, 145 S.W.3d 645, 648-49 (Tex. Crim. App. 2004); Cooper v. State, 45 S.W.3d 77, 80 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001); Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).

               The trial court’s certification of appellant’s right to appeal in this case states that this is a plea-bargained case and appellant has no right to appeal. The record supports the certification. We must dismiss an appeal if the trial court’s certification shows there is no right to appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).

               Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
