ANTONIO ESTRADA, JR., Appellant
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
On Appeal from the 410th District Court
Montgomery County, Texas
Trial Cause Nos. 06-01-00540-CR and 06-04-03650-CR
MEMORANDUM OPINION

We have before the Court two appeals by Antonio Estrada, Jr., from sentences pronounced November 14, 2006. The notices of appeal were filed with the trial court on February 27, 2007, more than thirty days from the date of sentencing. We notified the parties that the notices of appeal did not appear to have been timely filed. The response filed by the appellant contends the time for filing the notice of appeal begins when the judgment is signed.

The Court finds the notices of appeal were 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.
