TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-22-00326-CR Maria Elena Mijares, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE 207TH DISTRICT COURT OF COMAL COUNTY NO. CR2016-517, THE HONORABLE DIB WALDRIP, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION Appellant Maria Elena Mijares pleaded guilty to the offense of possession of a controlled substance in an amount less than one gram, and the district court placed her on deferred-adjudication community supervision for four years. Mijares has filed a notice of appeal from the district court’s order. The State has filed a motion to dismiss, arguing that Mijares has no right of appeal. The State has attached to its motion a copy of the plea-bargain agreement, the order of deferred adjudication, and the district court’s certification of Mijares’s right of appeal. The district court has certified that this is a plea-bargain case and that Mijares has no right of appeal, and this is confirmed by the terms of the plea agreement. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2), (d). We dismiss the State’s motion as moot. __________________________________________ Gisela D.
