Grady Burnett Vickers III v. State ( 2001 )

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-01-00078-CR
Grady Burnett Vickers III, Appellant
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 299TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. 006746, HONORABLE JON N. WISSER, JUDGE PRESIDING
PER CURIAM
This is an appeal from a judgment of conviction for robbery. Sentence was
imposed on December 12, 2000. There was no motion for new trial. The deadline for perfecting
appeal was therefore January 11, 2001. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Notice of appeal was
filed on January 12. No extension of time for filing notice of appeal was requested. See Tex. R.
App. P. 26.3. There is no indication that notice of appeal was properly mailed to the district clerk
within the time prescribed by rule 26.2(a). See Tex. R. App. P. 9.2(b). 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.
