TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-02-00081-CR John Richard Liles, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 264TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 52,853, HONORABLE C. W. DUNCAN, JR., JUDGE PRESIDING After pleading guilty, appellant John Richard Liles was convicted of impersonating a public servant and sentenced to imprisonment for seven years. The clerk s record 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 sentence was imposed in open court. 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). The record indicates that the trial court expressly denied permission to appeal. The appeal is dismissed.
