V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS STATE

FROM CRIMINAL DISTRICT COURT NO. 4 OF TARRANT COUNTY

------------

MEMORANDUM OPINION ^{(footnote: 1)}

------------

Appellant Dale Clark Chalfant attempts to appeal his conviction for indecency with a child by contact, for which he was sentenced to eight years’ confinement.  The trial court’s certification states that this case is a plea-bargain case and the defendant has no right of appeal.   See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).  We notified Appellant by letter that his appeal was subject to dismissal based on the trial court’s certification unless he filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.   See Tex. R. App. P . 25.2(d), 44.3.  Although Appellant filed a pro se response, it does not show grounds for continuing the appeal.  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.   See Tex. R. App. P. 43.2(f).
