Steve Calderon Hinojosa seeks to appeal judgments of conviction for injury to an elderly person and aggravated assault on a public servant. Sentence was imposed in both causes on August 10, 2006. The pro se notice of appeal was filed on February 23, 2007. Because the notice 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 Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1); 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). In addition, the trial court has certified that Hinojosa waived the right of appeal. See Tex. R. App. P.

25.2(a)(2); Monreal v. State, 99 S.W.3d 615, 622 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003); see also Blanco v. State, 18 S.W.3d 218, 220 (Tex. Crim. App. 2000).

The appeal is dismissed.
