OPINION
Opinion by
Justice CASTILLO.
Appellant Enrique Ruelas Chavez appeals his convictions for murder 1 and possession of a controlled substance with intent to deliver, 2 both first-degree felonies. 3 Chavez pleaded guilty to both charges pursuant to agreed punishment recommendations. The trial court honored the plea agreements and sentenced him on each charge to thirty years confinement in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice, to run concurrently. We conclude that Chavez’s appeals are frivolous and without merit. We dismiss.
