----------
FROM THE 432nd
District Court OF Tarrant COUNTY
----------
MEMORANDUM
OPINION[1]
----------
Pursuant
to a plea bargain in each case and upon his pleas of guilty to robbery by
threats and possession of one or more but less than four grams of a controlled
substance—methamphetamine—with intent to deliver, the trial court convicted
Appellant Edward Wayne Chapman of the two offenses, both of which are
second-degree felonies.[2]  Appellant signed
judicial confessions in which he also pled true to the habitual allegations in
each case, making the range of confinement twenty-five years to ninety-nine
years in each case.[3]  The trial court
sentenced him to serve twenty-five years’ confinement in each case, with the
sentences to run concurrently.  Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal in
each case.
For
each case, the trial court’s certification states that this is a plea-bargained
case and that Appellant has no right of appeal.  Accordingly, we informed
Appellant by letter on June 14, 2011, that these cases would be subject to
dismissal unless he or any party showed grounds for continuing the appeals on
or before June 24, 2011.[4] 
Neither Appellant’s retained trial counsel’s response nor Appellant’s pro se
response shows grounds for continuing these appeals.
We
therefore dismiss these appeals.[5]
