CORNELIUS WILLIAMS, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 180th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1108874
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, Cornelius Williams, pleaded guilty to the felony offense of delivery of a controlled substance, and, in accordance with his plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for three years. Appellant filed a timely pro se notice of appeal
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. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2); 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 correctness of the certification. Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 614-15 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). 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).
We note that appellant also waived his right to appeal. See Buck v. State, 45 S.W.3d 275, 278 (Tex. App.--Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
All pending motions are dismissed as moot.
