<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	The first two causes are appeals from judgments of conviction for burglary of a habitation
in which punishment was assessed at imprisonment for fifteen years.  Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 30.02 (West
1994 &amp; Supp. 1996).  The third cause is an appeal from a judgment of conviction for assault against a
public servant in which punishment was assessed at imprisonment for five years.  Tex. Penal Code Ann.
§ 22.01 (West 1994 &amp; Supp. 1996).</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	The transcripts contain written waivers of appeal signed by appellant, his attorney, and the
district judge.  These documents, which reflect a knowing and voluntary waiver of the right to appeal, were
signed on the day judgment and sentence were imposed in open court.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	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 transcripts to indicate that appellant sought or obtained the
permission of the district court to pursue these appeals.</SPAN></P>

<P><SPAN STYLE="font-family: CG Times">	The appeals are dismissed.</SPAN></P>
