Carole Hill Lilly a/k/a Carole Hill Bearden APPELLANT v. The State of Texas STATE FROM Criminal District Court No. 3 OF Tarrant COUNTY Pursuant to a plea bargain, Appellant Carole Hill Lilly a/k/a Carole Hill Bearden pleaded guilty to delivery of more than four but less than 200 grams of methamphetamine. See Tex. Health & Safety Code Ann. § 481.112(d) (West 2010). The trial court sentenced Appellant on June 20, 2011, to fifteen and one-half years' confinement in accordance with the plea agreement. The trial court's certification of Appellant's right of appeal states that this “is a plea-bargain case, and the defendant has NO right of appeal.” Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal in the trial court on June 30, 2011. Concerned that we did not have jurisdiction over this appeal, we sent a letter to Appellant and her retained counsel requesting a response by July 21, 2011, showing grounds for continuing the appeal. We have not received a response. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex.R.App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d), 43.2(f).
