Appellant entered a guilty plea to delivery of at least 400 grams of cocaine on January 14, 2003.  In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant to fifteen years= confinement in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice B Institutional Division and a $1,000 fine.  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.
