                                     ----------

      In exchange for the State’s offer of two years’ confinement, Appellant Jose

       See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 31.03(a), (e)(4)(D) (West Supp. 2014).
second-degree felony based on two prior felony convictions. 3 Appellant also

waived all pretrial motions and all rights of appeal. Appellant then filed a notice

of appeal.

      The trial court followed the plea bargain, convicted Appellant of the

offense, and sentenced him to two years’ confinement, awarding credit for time

served.

      The trial court’s certification states that this is a plea-bargained case and

that Appellant has no right of appeal. Accordingly, we informed Appellant by

letter that his case could be dismissed unless he or any party desiring to continue

the appeal showed grounds for continuing it. 4 We have received no response.

We therefore dismiss this appeal. 5
