PER CURIAM

Sitting: Alma L. L pez, Chief Justice

Sandee Bryan Marion, Justice

Phylis J. Speedlin, Justice

Delivered and Filed: August 11, 2004

DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

The trial court imposed sentence on August 6, 2003. A motion for new trial was due on September 5, 2003. Tex. R. Civ. P. 329b(a). Appellant filed his motion for new trial and his notice of appeal on May 5, 2004. On May 19, 2004, we ordered appellant to show cause why his appeal

04-04-00255-CR

should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant's counsel, Velia J. Meza, filed a response agreeing that this court lacked jurisdiction over this appeal.

This court lacks jurisdiction over an appeal of a criminal conviction in the absence of a timely, written notice of appeal. Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996); Shute v. State, 744 S.W.2d 96, 97 (Tex. Crim. App. 1988); see also Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 802 S.W.2d 241, 243 (Tex. Crim. App. 1991) (out-of-time appeal from felony conviction may be sought by filing a writ of habeas corpus pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure article 11.07). This appeal is therefore dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
