WILLIAM JAMES SULLIVAN, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed September 18, 2012.
On Appeal from the 176th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1170819
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant entered a guilty plea to aggravated assault against a public servant. After a pre-sentence investigation, the trial court deferred a finding of guilt and placed appellant on community supervision for six years. On April 16, 2012, the State filed a motion to adjudicate appellant's guilt, alleging that appellant failed to abide by two conditions of the terms of the community supervision order. Appellant entered a plea of true to the allegations in the State's motion to adjudicate, and he signed a written waiver of the right to appeal. The trial court adjudicated appellant's guilt, and on June 27, 2012, the court sentenced him to confinement for twelve years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. Appellant filed a pro se notice of appeal. We dismiss the appeal.
The trial court entered a certification of the defendant's right to appeal in which the court certified that the defendant waived the right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(a)(2). The trial court's certification is included in the record on appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). The record contains the signed, written waiver of the right to appeal in support of the trial court's certification. See Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 615 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
