Edna GARCIA a/k/a Edna Jane Marquez, Appellant
v.
The STATE of Texas, Appellee
From the 175th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 88-CR-4759 Honorable Mary Román, Judge Presiding
PER CURIAM
Sitting: Paul W. Green, Justice
Sarah B. Duncan, Justice
Karen Angelini, Justice
Delivered and Filed: September 30, 1998
DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION
Edna Garcia, also known as Edna Jane Marquez, filed a pro se motion to permit late
filing of her notice of appeal. She did not timely file a motion for extension of time. Because
the notice of appeal in this case was not timely filed, we lack jurisdiction to entertain both
Garcia's motion and her appeal. See Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App.
1996) (explaining that both the notice of appeal and the motion for extension of time must
be filed within the fifteen-day extension); see also Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 802
S.W.2d 241 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (explaining that the writ of habeas corpus pursuant to
article 11.07 of the Texas Code of Criminal Procedure governs out-of-time appeals from
felony convictions). Accordingly, we dismiss Garcia's motion and appeal for want of
jurisdiction.
