On Appeal from the 195th Judicial District Court, Dallas County, Texas, Trial Court Cause No. F01-15232-MN. DISMISSED

Before Justices JAMES, FRANCIS, and LANG.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


A jury found John Keith Wise guilty of possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine in an amount of four grams or more but less than 200 grams. Thereafter, appellant entered into a punishment agreement with the State whereby the State would drop the enhancement paragraph and the trial court would sentence appellant to eight years confinement. As part of the agreement, appellant waived his right to appeal. Appellant acknowledged orally to the trial court that he understood he was giving up his right to appeal. Appellate counsel has filed a letter stating that nothing in the record reflects the waiver should be set aside. Because appellant waived his right to appeal, we conclude we do not have jurisdiction over this appeal. See Monreal v. State, 99 S.W.3d 615 (Tex.Crim.App. 2003); Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218 (Tex.Crim.App. 2000). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
