Polly L. Price v. State
Opinion
In The
Court of Appeals
For The
First District of Texas
____________
NO. 01-03-01153-CR
____________
POLLY L. PRICE, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 263rd District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 950616
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, Polly L. Price, was charged with aggravated robbery. She pleaded guilty to the reduced charge of robbery and, in accordance with the plea bargain agreement between appellant and the State, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for two years. A timely pro se notice of appeal was filed. We dismiss for lack of jurisdiction.
Rule 25.2(a) of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure provides that, in a plea-bargained case in which the punishment assessed does not exceed the plea agreement, a defendant may appeal only those matters that were raised by written motion filed and ruled on before trial, or after getting the trial court’s permission to appeal. Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).
The trial court’s certification of defendant’s right to appeal in this case states that this is a plea-bargained case and the defendant has no right to appeal. We must dismiss an appeal unless the record includes a certification that shows the appellant has the right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).
We also note that appellant waived her right to appeal. See Buck v. State, 45 S.W.3d 275, 278 (Tex. App.—Houston [1st Dist.] 2001, no pet.).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
PER CURIAM
