TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-02-00647-CR Gary Beauchamp, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY, 277TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 01-532-K277, HONORABLE MICHAEL JERGINS, JUDGE PRESIDING Appellant Gary Beauchamp pleaded guilty to aggravated assault. Without adjudicating guilt, the district court placed appellant on four years= deferred adjudication, as called for in a plea bargain agreement. As part of his plea bargain, appellant promised not to appeal. This promise is binding when, as here, the court follows the agreed punishment recommendation. Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 220 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000). Furthermore, appellant=s notice of appeal does not comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 25.2(b)(3) and thus does not invoke this Court=s jurisdiction. Whitt v. State, 45 S.W.3d 274, 275 (Tex. App.CAustin 2001, no pet.); see Cooper v. State, 45 S.W.3d 77, 79 (Tex. Crim. App. 2001) (rule 25.2(b) limits every appeal in a plea bargain, felony case). The State=s motion to dismiss is granted and the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. __________________________________________ Lee Yeakel, Justice Before Chief Justice Aboussie, Justices B.
