Christopher Eric Cordaway, Appellant
V.
The State of
Texas, Appellee

 

 
On Appeal from the 179th District Court
Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Case No. 1237263
 

 
MEMORANDUM OPINION
          We lack jurisdiction to hear this
appeal.  Appellant, Christopher Eric
Cordaway, pleaded guilty to the offense of assault on a family member, second
offender, and in accordance with his plea bargain agreement with the State, the
trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for eight years.   
          After the trial court sentenced appellant to punishment
that fell within the terms of the plea bargain agreement, the trial court
certified that this case is a plea-bargain case and the defendant has no right
to appeal.  Appellant did not request the
trial court's permission to appeal any pre-trial matters, and the trial court
did not give permission for appellant to appeal.  Appellant filed a timely pro se notice of
appeal.  
           The certification
that appellant has no right of appeal, as shown on the “Trial Court’s
Certification of Right of Appeal” form signed by the trial court, is supported
by the record that shows that appellant has no right of appeal due to the
agreed plea bargain.  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a).  Because appellant has no right of appeal, we
must dismiss this appeal "without further action."  Chavez
v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex.Crim.App. 2006).
          Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed
for lack of jurisdiction.
          We deny any pending motions as moot. 
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Jennings, Alcala, and Massengale.
Do not publish. 
 Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
