Opinion
COURT OF APPEALS
SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS
FORT WORTH
NO. 2-05-369-CR
LARRY DALE FAUGHT APPELLANT
V.
THE STATE OF TEXAS STATE
------------
FROM THE 415TH DISTRICT COURT OF PARKER COUNTY
------------
MEMORANDUM OPINION[1]
------------
Larry Dale Faught is attempting to appeal his conviction for criminal solicitation of a minor with intent to commit aggravated sexual assault. We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
The trial court imposed appellant=s sentence on September 30, 2004. No motion for new trial was filed; therefore, appellant=s deadline for filing his appeal was November 1, 2004. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a). Appellant did not file his notice of appeal until September 27, 2005. Thus, the appeal is untimely.
In response to our jurisdiction letter, appellant tendered a AMotion [for] Leave to File Late Notice of Appeal,@ which does not state sufficient grounds for continuing the appeal.[2] Therefore, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
