APPELLANT

APPELLEE

PER CURIAM

Sylvester Perez seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for attempted burglary of a habitation. Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 15.01 (West 1989). After accepting appellant's plea of guilty and judicial confession, the district court found him guilty and assessed punishment at imprisonment for two years.

The transcript contains a written waiver of appeal signed by appellant, his attorney, and the trial judge. This document, which reflects a knowing and voluntary waiver of the right to appeal, was signed on the day appellant was convicted and after sentence was imposed.

A defendant who knowingly and intelligently waives his right to appeal may not thereafter appeal without the consent of the trial court. Ex parte Dickey, 543 S.W.2d 99 (Tex. Crim. App. 1976). See also Hurd v. State, 548 S.W.2d 388 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977); Reed v. State, 516 S.W.2d 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974). There is nothing in the record to indicate that appellant sought or obtained the permission of the trial court to pursue this appeal.

The appeal is dismissed.
