TERRANCE SHUAN MATHIS, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 339th District Court

 Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause Nos. 1051160 & 1051159

M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

Appellant entered a guilty plea to aggravated sexual assault of a child in Cause Nos. 1051160 (No. 14-07-00507-CR on appeal) and 1051159 (No. 14-07-00508-CR on appeal).  In each cause, in accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant on May 24, 2007, to confinement for fifteen years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.  Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal in each cause.  We dismiss both appeals. 

In each cause, the trial court entered a certification of the defendant=s right to appeal in which the court certified that these are plea bargain cases, 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 each record on appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).  In each cause, 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 both appeals.
