Appellant entered a guilty plea to the offense of theft.  In accordance with the terms of a plea
bargain agreement with the State,[1]
the trial court sentenced appellant on August 19, 2004, to confinement for 35
years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal
Justice.  Appellant filed a pro se notice
of appeal.  Because appellant has no
right to appeal, we dismiss.  

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).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
