MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM

Appellant pleaded guilty to indecency with a child pursuant to an agreed punishment recommendation by the State. The trial court sentenced Appellant to imprisonment for fifteen years in accordance with the State's recommendation. We have received the trial court's certification showing that Appellant waived his right to appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.2(d). The certification is signed by Appellant and his counsel. The clerk's record supports the trial court's certification. See Greenwell v. Thirteenth Court of Appeals, 159 S.W.3d 645, 649 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005); Dears v. State, 154 S.W.3d 610, 614-15 (Tex. Crim. App. 2005). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See Monreal v. State, 99 S.W.3d 615, 622 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003); Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 220 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000).

Opinion delivered July 31, 2009.
