On Appeal from the 339th District Court

Trial Court Cause No. 943,155

 

 

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant entered a guilty plea to tampering or fabricating physical evidence.  In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, on June 5, 2003, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for two years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.  Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal.  Because appellant has no right to appeal, we dismiss. 


The trial court entered a certification of the defendant=s right to appeal in which the court certified that this is a plea bargain case, the defendant has no right of appeal, and the defendant waived his right of appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).  The trial court=s certification is included in the record on appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
