MEMORANDUM OPINION
Pursuant to a plea bargain Curtis Scott Jones plead guilty to two counts of murder.
The trial court sentenced him to 40 years confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal
Justice Institutional Division on each count. Appellant timely filed pro se notices of appeal
in the two cases. The trial court appointed counsel to represent appellant in his appeals.
The clerk’s records contain the trial court’s certification in both records that these
are plea-bargained cases, and the defendant has no right of appeal. Tex. R. App. P.
25.2(a)(2) and (d). The records show the punishment assessed did not exceed the
punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by the defendant. Following
sentencing, appellant signed waivers of his right to appeal pursuant to the plea bargain
agreements.
The clerk of this court notified appointed counsel by letter on October 28, 2003, that
the appeals would be considered for dismissal on or after November 17, 2003, providing
an opportunity to respond. No response has been filed. As the records show that
appellant has no right of appeal, the appeals are dismissed. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2.
