On Appeal from the 179th District Court. Harris County, Texas. Trial Court Cause Nos. 1056971 1069235

Panel consists of Justices FOWLER, EDELMAN, and FROST.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Appellant entered a guilty plea to unlawful possession of a firearm in trial court cause number 1056971 (14-06-00951-CR on appeal) and trial court cause number 1069235 (14-06-00952-CR on appeal). In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant on September 28, 2006, to confinement for two years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice in each cause, with the sentences to run concurrently. Appellant filed pro se notices of appeal. We dismiss the appeals. In each cause, the trial court entered a certification of the defendant=s right to appeal in which the court certified that the defendant waived the 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). Each record supports the trial court=s certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex.Crim.App. 2005). Moreover, in each case appellant entered a plea of guilty and the punishment did not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor and agreed to by appellant. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2). In neither case does the record reflect any matters that were raised by written motion filed and ruled on before trial, or that the trial court has given permission to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a)(2)(A) and (B). Appellant therefore has no right to appeal either case. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals. Judgment rendered and Memorandum Opinion filed November 30, 2006.
