Jonathon David Fisher v. State
Jonathon David Fisher v. State
Opinion
Jonathon David Fisher pleaded guilty and judicially confessed to deadly conduct, felony offense. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 22.05(b)(2), (e) (West 1994). The district court assessed punishment at imprisonment for ten years.
There is no notice of appeal in the record. Without a timely filed notice of appeal, this Court is without jurisdiction. Shute v. State, 744 S.W.2d 96 (Tex. Crim. App. 1988). Moreover, the clerk's record contains a written waiver of appeal signed by appellant, his attorney, and the trial judge 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). Appellant filed a pro se motion for permission to appeal, but there is nothing in the record to indicate that permission was granted.
The appeal is dismissed.
