MEMORANDUM OPINION
Pursuant to a plea agreement, appellant Anthony Glen Powell Jr. pleaded guilty to the offense of possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver. Punishment was assessed at ten years' imprisonment, but the district court suspended imposition of the sentence and placed Powell on community supervision for ten years. The district court certified that, although this was a plea-bargain case, Powell had the right to appeal the district court's denial of a motion to suppress that Powell had filed prior to entering his plea. However, while this appeal was pending, the State filed a motion to revoke Powell's community supervision. In the motion, the State alleged that Powell had committed, on two occasions since being placed on community supervision, the offense of possession of a controlled substance. As a result of these allegations, two new cases were filed against Powell. Subsequently, Powell entered into a new plea agreement with the State. As part of this new plea bargain, Powell agreed to plead guilty to the new offenses, true to the allegations in the motion to revoke, and to waive his right of appeal in all three cases — the two new cases and the first case that is the subject of this appeal. In exchange, the State agreed to recommend a sentence of five years' imprisonment (as opposed to the ten years originally assessed), with the sentence in all three cases to run concurrently. At the hearing on the State's motion to revoke, consistent with the plea agreement, Powell pleaded guilty to the new offenses and true to the allegations in the motion to revoke. The district court then imposed sentence in accordance with the recommendation of the State. The district court has since filed an amended certificate of Powell's right to appeal. In it, the district court has certified that this is a plea-bargain case, Powell has no right of appeal, and he has waived the right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
The trial court cause numbers are 65,311 and 65,321.
