PER CURIAM

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times Regular">Appellant David Eugene Weir pleaded guilty to informations accusing him of
forgery by passing.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 32.21 (West Supp. 2000).  The district court
adjudged him guilty in each cause and, pursuant to a plea bargain agreement, sentenced him to
incarceration for terms of one year and eighteen months, respectively.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times Regular">The clerk's record in each cause 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.  <EM>Ex parte Dickey</EM>, 543 S.W.2d 99 (Tex. Crim. App.
1976); <EM>see also Hurd v. State</EM>, 548 S.W.2d 388 (Tex. Crim. App. 1977); <EM>Reed v. State</EM>, 516 
S.W.2d 680 (Tex. Crim. App. 1974).  There is nothing in the record to indicate that appellant
sought or obtained the permission of the trial court to pursue these appeals.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times Regular">The appeals are dismissed.</SPAN></P>
