      Appellant Emmitt Starling attempts to appeal from his conviction for

arson. Pursuant to a plea-bargain agreement, Appellant pleaded guilty to this

offense, and the trial court sentenced him to ten years’ confinement. The trial

court also certified that this is a plea-bargain case and that Appellant has no

right of appeal.

          … See T EX. R. A PP. P. 47.4.
      On April 9, 2008, we informed Appellant by letter that his appeal was

subject to dismissal based on the trial court’s certification unless, by April 21,

he filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal. See T EX. R.

A PP. P. 25.2(d), 44.3. No response has been filed. Accordingly, we dismiss

the appeal. See T EX. R. A PP. P. 25.2(d).
