MEMORANDUM OPINION


Oscar Renard Robinson entered a negotiated guilty plea to aggravated sexual assault of a child. The trial court assessed the agreed punishment of thirty years' confinement. As part of the plea agreement, appellant waived his right to appeal. See Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 220 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000). The trial court issued a rule 25.2(d) certification showing appellant has no right to appeal due to the plea bargain. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2. The record supports the trial court's certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 614-15 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). Appellant entered into a plea bargain agreement and waived his right to appeal. The record does not contain any pretrial motions or rulings that would serve as a basis for appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2); Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006) (explaining analysis courts of appeal undertake in determining appellate rights of plea-bargaining defendants). The State has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. We GRANT the State's motion. We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

Appellant entered his plea of guilty after being convicted by a jury in a companion case currently on appeal as cause no. 05-09-01329-CR. Although appellant accepted plea bargains on both cases, the trial court has given appellant permission to appeal cause no. 05-09-01329-CR.
