TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
NO. D-1-DC-07-302550, HONORABLE FRED A. MOORE, JUDGE PRESIDING
Andre Demar Gipson seeks to appeal a judgment convicting him of aggravated robbery. Sentence was imposed on August 7, 2008, and there was a timely motion for new trial. The deadline for perfecting appeal was therefore November 5, 2008. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(2). Gipson's notice of appeal was filed on November 6. The State has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal to which Gipson's counsel has not responded.
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 State's motion to dismiss is granted.
The appeal is dismissed.
