                                                                        In The

    Eleventh Court of Appeals

                                                                  ___________

                                                          No. 11-09-00319-CR

                                 __________

                                         ADRIAN VILLA, Appellant

                                                             V.

                                         STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                                          On Appeal from the 70th District Court

                                                           Ector County, Texas

                                                 Trial Court Cause No. A-35,566

                                             M E M O R A N D U M   O P I N I O N

The trial court convicted Adrian Villa, upon his plea of guilty, of the offense of violation of a protective order and assessed his punishment at confinement for two years and a $750 fine.  Pursuant to the plea bargain agreement, the trial court suspended the imposition of the confinement portion of the sentence and placed appellant on community supervision for two years.  We dismiss.

The record before this court reflects that appellant waived his right to appeal and that there are no pretrial motions raising jurisdictional issues ruled upon by the trial court.  On December 2, 2009, the clerk of this court wrote the parties advising them that it appeared appellant may have waived his right to appeal and directing appellant to respond in writing on or before December 17, 2009, showing grounds for continuing the appeal.  There has been no response to our December 2 letter.

Therefore, the appeal is dismissed.
