Before Justices Dorsey, Rodriguez, and Castillo

Opinion Per Curiam


Appellant, JAIME NARANJO , attempted to perfect appeals from judgments entered by the 197th District Court of Cameron County, Texas. Sentences in these causes were imposed on September 5, 2001 . The notices of appeal were due to be filed on October 5, 2001 , but were not filed until October 30, 2001 . Said notices of appeal are untimely filed.

Tex. R. App. P. 26.3 provides that the court of appeals may grant an extension of time for filing notice of appeal if such notice is filed within fifteen days of the last day allowed and within the same period a motion is filed in the court of appeals reasonably explaining the need for such extension. Appellant failed to file his notices of appeal and motion requesting an extension of time within such period.

The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant's failure to timely perfect his appeals, is of the opinion that the appeals should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The appeals are hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.

PER CURIAM
