On February 21, 2008, we notified the parties that the notice of appeal did not appear to have been timely filed. The appellant's response explains that the appellant thought the appellate deadlines ran from the date the trial court overruled her motion for new trial. The trial court signed the judgment on October 9, 2007 and the appellate timetables were extended by the timely filing of post-judgment motions. Notice of appeal was due to be filed on January 7, 2008. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1(a). Youlanda Fontenot filed notice of appeal on February 5, 2008, more than 90 days from the date of judgment and outside the time for which we may grant an extension of time to perfect appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. This Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
