JAMES RAY BROWN, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

____________________________________________

On Appeal from the 338th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 922,908

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

            Appellant entered a guilty plea to the offense of aggravated assault on April 1, 2003.  In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant to three years’ confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice – Institutional Division.  Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal.  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).  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.
