MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Francis, Lang-Miers, and Myers
Opinion by Justice Myers
Tiray L. Oates entered a negotiated guilty plea to aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. The trial court followed the plea agreement and sentenced appellant to eight years' imprisonment. Appellant waived his right to appeal as part of the plea agreement. See Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 219-20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000); see also Jones v. State, No. PD-0587-15, 2016 WL 1359196 (Tex. Crim. App. April 6, 2016) (waiver of right to appeal as part of plea agreement). The trial court certified appellant does not have the right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a), (d); Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
Appellant's appeal in cause no. 05-16-00369-CR, which followed his conviction by a jury, remains pending before the Court. --------
