                                MEMORANDUM OPINION[1]

 

                                              ------------


On November 26, 2007, appellant Victor Borjas Soto a/k/a Victor Barjas Soto pled guilty to aggravated assault with a deadly weapon pursuant to a plea bargain.  In accordance with the plea bargain, the trial court sentenced him to ten years= confinement.  Although appellant timely filed a notice of appeal in this court, the trial court=s certification of his right to appeal shows that this case Ais a plea-bargain case, and [appellant] has NO right of appeal.@

On December 14, 2007, we sent a letter to appellant=s court-appointed counsel informing him of the trial court=s certification and giving appellant, or any party desiring to continue the appeal, until December 27, 2007 to file a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).  We stated that the appeal would be dismissed unless we received such a response.  See Tex. R. App. P. 44.3.  On January 7, 2007, we received a letter from appellant=s counsel, in which he agreed that appellant has no right of appeal and dismissal is appropriate.

Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d), 43.2(f); Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006); Jackson v. State, 168 S.W.3d 239, 243 (Tex. App.CFort Worth 2005, no pet.).
