ADONIS ANDREANO ABBOTT, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 338th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 903,233
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
Appellant pled guilty to the offense of possession of a controlled substance on March 7, 2002. In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant to one year in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, State Jail Division. As part of the plea bargain agreement, appellant signed a written waiver of his right to appeal. Because appellant has waived his right to appeal, we dismiss.
Appellant pled guilty and the trial court followed the plea bargain agreement in assessing punishment. Despite having waived the right to appeal, appellant filed a notice of appeal. Appellant chose to enter into an agreement that included a waiver of the right to appeal. Appellant was informed of his right to appeal, knew with certainty the punishment he would receive, and that he could withdraw his plea if the trial court did not act in accordance with the plea agreement. As appellant was fully aware of the consequences when he waived his right to appeal, it is Anot unfair to expect him to live with those consequences now.@ Alzarka v. State, 60 S.W.3d 203, 206 (Tex. App.BHouston [14th Dist.] July 26, 2001, pet. filed September 28, 2001) (quoting Mabry v. Johnson, 467 U.S. 504, 104 S.Ct. 2543, 2547-48, 81 L. Ed. 2d 437 (1984)). See also Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 219-20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000); Buck v. State, 45 S.W.3d 275, 278 (Tex. App.CHouston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
