DONALD ANTHONY WILLIAMS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee




On Appeal from the 179th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 986418



 
MEMORANDUM  OPINION
               Appellant, Donald Anthony Williams, was charged with aggravated
robbery.  The State reduced the charge to robbery, and appellant pleaded guilty to that
offense.  In accordance with his plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court
sentenced appellant to confinement for 15 years.  Appellant filed a timely pro se
notice of appeal.  We dismiss for lack of jurisdiction.
               In a plea-bargained case in which the punishment assessed does not exceed
the plea agreement, a defendant may appeal only those matters that were raised by
written motion filed and ruled on before trial, or after obtaining the trial court’s
permission to appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).
               The trial court’s certification of appellant’s right to appeal in this case states
that this is a plea-bargained case and appellant has no right to appeal.  The record
supports the certification.  We must dismiss an appeal if the trial court’s certification
shows there is no right to appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).
               We also note that appellant waived his right to appeal.  See Buck v. State,
45 S.W.3d 275, 278 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.).
               Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
               All pending motions are denied as moot.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Nuchia, Alcala, and Higley.
