in the Matter of M.L.S.
Opinion
On September 15, 2006, M.L.S. and his attorney executed a waiver of the right to appeal the adjudication and disposition of the case against the juvenile. On the same day, the trial court signed a judgment and order of probation in the case. On October 13, 2006, M.L.S. filed notice of appeal. The record does not indicate that the trial court granted M.L.S. permission to appeal. On November 9, 2006, we notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed unless our jurisdiction was established. No response has been filed. The record reflects that M.L.S. waived his right to appeal in compliance with Section 51.09 of the Family Code. See Tex. Fam. Code Ann. § 51.09 (Vernon 2002). The validity of the waiver has not been challenged. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
