Trial Court Cause Nos. F13-62491-L, F14-57707-L, F14-60871-l
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Brown and Stoddart
Opinion by Justice Brown
Thomas James Dunn was convicted, following the adjudication of his guilt, of possession
of methamphetamine in an amount less than one gram and possession of heroin in an amount less
than one gram. He was also convicted of a new offense of possession of methamphetamine in an
amount less than one gram. Appellant entered negotiated pleas of true to the motions to
adjudicate guilt and a negotiated guilty plea to the new methamphetamine offense. The trial
court followed the plea agreements and sentenced appellant to fifteen months’ confinement in a
state jail facility in each case. Appellant waived his right to appeal as part of the plea
agreements. See Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 219–20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000). The trial
court has certified that appellant has no right to appeal due to the plea agreements and the waiver
of his right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a), (d); Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex.
Crim. App. 2005). 1
We dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.

Appellant’s appeal in a fourth case, 05-15-00205-CR, remains pending. The record before the Court did not support the trial court’s
original certification, and the trial court has filed an amended certification that states appellant has the right to appeal.
