NO. 14-11-00675-CR

JACQUELINE YVETTE ALLEN, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 230th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1307828

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant entered a guilty plea to possession of a controlled substance. In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court deferred adjudication and placed appellant on community supervision for two years and assessed a fine of $500.  We dismiss the appeal. 

In a plea-bargain case for deferred adjudication community supervision, the plea bargain is complete at the time the defendant enters his plea of guilty in exchange for deferred adjudication community supervision.  Hargesheimer v. State, 182 S.W.3d 906 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006).  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).  The record supports the trial court’s certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
