EDWARD MONTANO, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 184th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 950,747
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
Appellant entered a guilty plea, without an agreed recommendation as to punishment, to aggravated robbery. On October 16, 2003, the trial court sentenced appellant to confinement for five years in the Institutional Division of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. When appellant entered the guilty plea, he signed a written waiver of the right of appeal. Appellant filed a written notice of appeal. Because appellant waived the right to appeal and the trial court did not grant permission to appeal, we dismiss. See Monreal v. State, 99 S.W.3d 615, 622 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003).
The trial court entered a certification of the defendant=s right to appeal in which the court certified that appellant 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).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
