Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed May 23, 2013.

                                      In The

                    Fourteenth Court of Appeals

                              NO. 14-13-00339-CR

                       JOE LUIS VALENCIA, Appellant

                                        V.
                       THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                    On Appeal from the 208th District Court
                            Harris County, Texas
                        Trial Court Cause No. 1360422

                 MEMORANDUM                      OPINION

      Appellant entered a guilty plea to driving while intoxicated, third offense. In
accordance with the terms of a plea bargain agreement with the State, the trial
court sentenced appellant on March 18, 2013, to confinement for fifteen years in
the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Appellant
filed a pro se notice of appeal. We dismiss the appeal.
      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 the defendant has no
right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). The trial court’s certification is
included in the record on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). The record supports
the trial court’s certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim.
App. 2005).

      Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
