GEORGE EARL OWENS, Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 258th District Court
Polk County, Texas
Trial Cause Nos. 13719 and 13892
MEMORANDUM OPINION

We have before the Court two appeals by George Earl Owens from sentences pronounced October 31, 1995. The notice of appeal was filed with the trial court on June 1, 2006, more than thirty days from the date of sentencing. We notified the parties that the appeal did not appear to have been timely filed. The response filed by the appellant does not contend that notice of appeal was filed within the time permitted for perfecting appeal. The Court finds the notice of appeal was not timely filed. Tex. R. App. P. 26.2. No extension of time was timely requested pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. It does not appear that appellant obtained out-of-time appeals from the Court of Criminal Appeals. The Court finds it is without jurisdiction to entertain these appeals. Accordingly, the appeals are dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

APPEALS DISMISSED.
