WALTER FORREST ROSS, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee


On Appeal from the 363rd Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. F15-53396-W

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Wright and Justices Fillmore and Stoddart
Opinion by Justice Fillmore

Walter Forrest Ross pleaded guilty to possession of methamphetamine in an amount of one gram or more but less than four grams. Pursuant to a plea agreement, the trial court sentenced appellant to two 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). The trial court certified both that appellant waived his right to appeal and that the case involves a plea bargain and appellant has no 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. We deny as moot counsel's motion to withdraw that was filed contemporaneously with an Anders brief.
