M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant was convicted of burglary of a habitation on February 17, 2003, and sentenced to 60 years= confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice - Institutional Division.  Notice of appeal was filed on February 18, 2003. On April 29, 2003, while this appeal was pending, the trial court granted a new trial, and on that same day appellant entered a guilty plea to burglary of a habitation.  In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant to 35 years= confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice - Institutional Division.   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, and the defendant has no 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.
