Lorenzo Washington, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 331ST JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 005016, HONORABLE BOB PERKINS, JUDGE PRESIDING

This is an appeal from a judgment of conviction for theft. Sentence was imposed on December 4, 2000. There was a timely motion for new trial, so the deadline for perfecting appeal was March 5, 2001. Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1)(2). Notice of appeal was filed on October 12, 2001.

Under the circumstances, we lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeal in any manner other than by dismissing it for want of jurisdiction. See 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.
