Michael Joseph Taplin seeks to appeal his conviction for two counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child. The pro se notice of appeal was filed two months after sentence was imposed. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a). The trial court has certified that this is a plea bargain case and Taplin has no right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d). The court has also certified that Taplin waived the right of appeal. See Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 220 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000); see also Monreal v. State, 99 S.W.3d 615, 622 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003). The appeal is dismissed.
