Opinion filed October 1, 2009. DO NOT PUBLISH — TEX. R. APP. P. 47.2(b).

On Appeal from the 179th District Court Harris County, Texas, Trial Court Cause No. 1118958.

Panel consists of Justices YATES, FROST, and BROWN.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


Appellant entered a "guilty" plea to murder. In accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial court sentenced appellant on July 21, 2009, to confinement for 20 years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal. Because appellant entered a plea of guilty pursuant to a plea bargain and the punishment assessed did not exceed the punishment recommended by the prosecutor, appellant has no right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), Shankle v. State, 119 S.W.3d 808, 813 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
