TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-05-00092-CR
Charles Ray Adams, Jr., Appellant
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 403RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. 9034165, HONORABLE BRENDA KENNEDY, JUDGE PRESIDING
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Charles Adams seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for aggravated sexual
assault. Sentence was imposed on June 28, 2004. There was no motion for new trial. The deadline
for perfecting appeal was therefore July 28, 2004. Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Adams filed his pro
se notice of appeal on December 27, 2004. Under the circumstances, 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.
