Javier Alejandro Losoya v. State ( 2013 )

Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed June 13, 2013.
In The
Fourteenth Court of Appeals
NO. 14-13-00473-CR
JAVIER ALEJANDRO LOSOYA, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 174th District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 1155961
MEMORANDUM OPINION
After a plea of guilty, the trial court deferred adjudication of guilt and
assessed five years’ deferred adjudication probation on May 1, 2008. Appellant’s
notice of appeal was not filed until May 13, 2013.
A defendant’s notice of appeal must be filed within thirty days after sentence
is imposed when the defendant has not filed a motion for new trial. See Tex. R.
App. P. 26.2(a)(1). If an appeal is not timely perfected, a court of appeals does not
obtain jurisdiction to address the merits of the appeal. Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d
208, 210 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998). Under those circumstances it can take no action
other than to dismiss the appeal. Id.
Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
PER CURIAM
Panel consists of Justices Boyce, Jamison, and Busby.
