PETE GARCIA, Appellant

 

V.

 

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

 

 

On Appeal from the 180th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1262986 and 1262987

 

 


MEMORANDUM OPINION


          In appellate cause number 01-10-01136-CR, appellant, Pete Garcia, pleaded guilty to the offense of felon in possession of a firearm.  In appellate cause number 01-10-01137-CR, appellant pleaded guilty to the offense of possession of a controlled substance.  In accordance with the terms of appellant’s plea bargain agreement with the State in each cause number, the trial court sentenced appellant to seven years’ confinement in each cause, with the sentences to run concurrently.  Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal in each cause number.  We dismiss the appeals.

In each cause number, the trial court entered a certification of the defendant’s right to appeal in which the court certified that this is a plea bargain case and that the defendant has no right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). Both of the trial court’s certifications are included in the record on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). The record supports the trial court’s certification in each cause. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeals in cause numbers 01-10-01136-CR and 01-10-01137-CR.  We dismiss any outstanding motions as moot.
