THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 183rd District Court

Trial Court Cause No. 952,735 & 952,734

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant entered guilty pleas to forgery of a commercial instrument and escape.  In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, on June 23, 2003, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for 180 days in the State Jail Division of the  Texas Department of Criminal Justice on the forgery charge and to confinement for two years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice on the escape charge.  Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal for each case.  Because appellant has no right to appeal, we dismiss. 

The trial court entered a certification of the defendant=s right to appeal in each case in which the court certified that each 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 certifications are included in the records on appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals.
