Jose Guadalupe Diaz pleaded guilty to a drug trafficking crime and was sentenced *363 to 262 months imprisonment. His appointed counsel has filed a motion to withdraw and a brief in accordance with Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967).

“A timely notice of appeal is necessary to the exercise of appellate jurisdiction.” United States v. Cooper, 135 F.3d 960, 961 (5th Cir. 1998). No timely notice of appeal was filed from the original judgment, and the amended and re-entered judgments that made only clerical changes pursuant to Fed. R.Crim. P. 36 did not extend the time for filing a notice of appeal. United States v. Lewis, 921 F.2d 563, 565 (5th Cir. 1991); see also Fed. R.App. P. 4(b). The notice of appeal filed almost a year after entry of the original judgment does not confer jurisdiction on this court. The appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction, and the motion to withdraw is DENIED AS MOOT.

APPEAL DISMISSED; MOTION TO WITHDRAW DENIED AS MOOT.
