Jesus Carvajal v. State

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-04-00305-CR Jesus Carvajal, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 331ST JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 9044016, HONORABLE BOB PERKINS, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION Jesus Carvajal seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for failing to register as a sex offender. Sentence was imposed on March 14, 2004. There was no motion for new trial. The deadline for perfecting appeal was therefore April 13, 2004. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Carvajal filed what he styled his “out of time notice of appeal” on April 28, 2004. No extension of time for filing notice of appeal was requested. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. We lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeal in any manner other than by dismissing it 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 appeal is dismissed. __________________________________________ Jan P.
