                                           v.

                     MEMORANDUM OPINION

               Before Justices Rodriguez, Castillo, and Garza

                       Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, DANIEL GARZA, attempted to perfect appeals from judgments entered by the 214th District Court of Nueces County, Texas.  The sentences in these causes were imposed on August 26, 1999. The notices of appeal were due to be filed on September 27, 1999, but were not filed until November 12, 2005.   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  motions 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
