                            MEMORANDUM OPINION
                 Before Chief Justice Wright, Justice Myers, and Justice Evans
                               Opinion by Chief Justice Wright
   Dwayne Elliot Rowland pleaded guilty to stalking. Pursuant to a plea agreement, the trial

court deferred adjudication of guilt and placed appellant on five years’ community supervision.

Appellant waived his right to appeal as part of the plea agreement. See Blanco v. State, 18

S.W.3d 218, 219–20 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000). The trial court certified that appellant has no right

to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(a), (d); Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610 (Tex. Crim. App.

2005). We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
