TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN
NO. 03-03-00020-CR
Dianna Luera Lopez, Appellant
v.
The State of Texas, Appellee
FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF RUNNELS COUNTY, 119TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
NO. 4214, HONORABLE BEN WOODWARD, JUDGE PRESIDING
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Dianna Luera Lopez seeks to appeal from an order revoking probation. Sentence was
imposed on October 23, 2002. The deadline for filing a motion for new trial was therefore November 22,
2002. Tex. R. App. P. 21.4(a). The motion for new trial was filed December 20, 2002. Because the
motion for new trial was not timely, the notice of appeal filed January 3, 2003, also was not timely. Tex. R.
App. P. 26.2(a). Under the circumstances, we lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeal in any
manner other than by dismissing it for want of jurisdiction. Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex. Crim.
App.1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522-23 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).
The appeal is dismissed.
