TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN NO. 03-05-00120-CV Roy Dominguez, Appellant v. Jo Anne Dominguez, Appellee FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 169TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 199,317-C, HONORABLE MICHAEL J. NELSON, JUDGE PRESIDING MEMORANDUM OPINION The judgment in this case was signed August 19, 2004. On October 28, 2004, appellant Roy Dominguez filed with the trial court a notice of appeal, a motion to amend the judgment, and a motion for nunc pro tunc judgment and order. The trial court did not rule on Dominguez s motions. Because Dominguez s motion to amend judgment was untimely, his notice of appeal was due on September 19, 2004. Dominguez did not file a motion for an extension of time to file notice of appeal.1 A late-filed notice of appeal does not confer jurisdiction on this Court. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. Bea Ann Smith, Justice Before Justices B. A. Smith, Puryear and Pemberton Dismissed for Want of Jurisdiction Filed: March 24, 2005 1 Because Dominguez filed the notice of appeal more than fifteen days late, the instrument itself cannot serve as an implied motion for extension of time. See Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997). 2
