____________

BILLIE D. WASHINGTON, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 351st District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 1085638

MEMORANDUM OPINION

          Appellant, Billie D. Washington, pleaded true to the motion to adjudicate guilt on the offense of sexual assault of a child.  At the sentencing hearing, appellant signed a waiver of appeal stating “I agree to waive any right to appeal I may have concerning any issue or claim in this case, including my plea or true or admission of guilt.”  The trial court sentenced appellant to 20 years’ confinement with a $10,000 fine.  Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal.  We dismiss the appeal.

An appeal must be dismissed if a certification showing that the defendant has the right of appeal has not been made part of the record.  Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2)(d).  Here, the trial court’s certification is included in the record on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d).  The trial court’s certification states that the defendant has waived the right of appeal.  See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2).  The record supports the trial court’s certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).  The judgment states that no permission to appeal has been granted.  Because appellant has no right of appeal, we must dismiss this appeal.  See Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.  All pending motions are dismissed as moot.
