V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the Fifth Judicial District Court

Cass County, Texas

Trial Court No. 2004-F-00176

Before Morriss, C.J., Ross and Carter, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Steffon O'Keith Hatten appeals from the revocation of his community supervision and adjudication of guilt on charges of theft. See Tex. Pen. Code Ann. 31.03 (Vernon Supp. 2005). His sentence was imposed March 8, 2006. Hatten timely filed a motion for new trial April 7, 2006. According to Rule 26.2, after Hatten timely filed his motion for new trial, he had ninety days after the date sentence was imposed to file a notice of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(2). Hatten had until June 6, 2006, to file a notice of appeal. He did not, however, file his notice of appeal until June 8, 2006. No motion for extension of time to file his notice of appeal was filed. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. // Hence, this appeal is untimely, and we are without jurisdiction to hear this case.

We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
