IN THE COURT OF APPEALS
TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT
TYLER, TEXAS
DENNIS LYNCH, § APPEAL FROM THE 241ST
APPELLANT
V. § JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT
THE STATE OF TEXAS,
APPELLEE § SMITH COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM
Appellant pleaded guilty to evading arrest, and the trial court assessed his punishment at
confinement for two years.
We have received the clerk’s record, which includes the trial court’s certification
showing that Appellant waived his right to appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 25.2(d). The clerk’s
record also includes a copy of the written waiver of Appellant’s right to appeal, which is signed
by Appellant and his counsel. Additionally, Appellant’s counsel for this appeal has informed
this court that, after sentencing, Appellant waived his right to appeal. Therefore, he concludes
the appeal must be dismissed. Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
See Chavez v. State, 183 S.W.3d 675, 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 2006).
Opinion delivered June 24, 2015.
