MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Bridges, Fillmore, and Lewis Opinion by Justice Lewis

Daniel Lee Knod pleaded guilty to theft of property having a value of $1,500 or more but

less than $20,000. Pursuant to a plea agreement, the trial court assessed punishment at

confinement in a state jail for 365 days. Appellant waived his right to appeal in conjunction with

the plea agreement. See Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 219—20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000). The

trial court certified both that appellant waived his right to appeal and that the case involves a plea

bargain and appellant has no right to appeal.’ See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d); Dears v. State, 154

S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim, App. 2005).

Appellant informed the trial court at a hearing on September 10, 201 3 that he filed a pro se notice of appeal despite the waiver of his right to appeal; however, he no longer desires to appeal his conviction.

We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
