No. 08-05-00050-CR

Appeal from the

199th District Court

of Collin County, Texas

(TC# 199-81432-03)




O P I N I O N

           Appellant entered a guilty plea to the offense of unlawful possession of a firearm by
a felon.  Pursuant to a plea bargain, the court assessed punishment at five years’
imprisonment and a fine of $1,000.  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).  Furthermore, the trial court indicated in its certification that
Appellant had waived his right to appeal and the trial records confirm this waiver.  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.
