Torrence Ray Evans, Appellant
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TOM GREEN COUNTY, 119TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NOS. B-99-0269-S & B-99-0270-S HONORABLE BARBARA L. WALTHER, JUDGE PRESIDING
PER CURIAMTorrence Ray Evans seeks to appeal from convictions for theft. Sentence was imposed in each cause on March 7, 2000. There were timely motions for new trial. The deadline for perfecting appeal was therefore May 8, 2000. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(2). The notices of appeal were filed on May 18. No extension of time was requested. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. There is no indication that the notices of appeal were properly mailed to the district clerk within the time prescribed by rule 26.2(a). See Tex. R. App. P. 9.2(b). Under the circumstances, we lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeals in any manner other than by dismissing them for want of jurisdiction. See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522-23 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).
The appeals are dismissed.
