Jacob Michael Trevino v. State

MEMORANDUM OPINION No. 04-11-00556-CR Jacob Michael TREVINO, Appellant v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee From the 144th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas Trial Court No. 2011CR1642 Honorable Angus McGinty, Judge Presiding PER CURIAM Sitting: Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice Phylis J. Speedlin, Justice Rebecca Simmons, Justice Delivered and Filed: October 5, 2011 DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION The trial court imposed sentence on June 28, 2011. It does not appear that a motion for new trial was filed; therefore, the notice of appeal was due to be filed on July 28, 2011. TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a)(1). Appellant filed his notice of appeal on August 1, 2011, and he did not file a motion for extension of time in which to file the notice. On August 8, 2011, we ordered appellant to show cause why his appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant did not file a response. This court lacks jurisdiction over an appeal of a criminal conviction in the absence of a timely, written notice of appeal. 04-11-00556-CR Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996); Shute v. State, 744 S.W.2d 96, 97 (Tex. Crim. App. 1988); see also Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 802 S.W.2d 241, 243 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (out-of-time appeal from felony conviction may be sought by filing a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 11.07). This appeal is therefore dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. PER CURIAM DO NOT PUBLISH -2-
