Luis Noguez seeks to appeal an order denying his motion for post-conviction DNA testing. The motion was denied on June 23, 2005. The notice of appeal was filed on September 30, 2005. Because the notice of appeal was not timely, 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.
