Arthur Johnson v. State

Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-05-00339-CR

Arthur Johnson, Appellant

v.

The State of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 390TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT NO. 5030286, HONORABLE CHARLES F. CAMPBELL, JR., JUDGE PRESIDING

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Arthur Johnson seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for burglary of a

building. Sentence was imposed on February 27, 2004. Johnson filed his pro se notice of appeal on

May 25, 2005, long after the time for perfecting appeal had expired. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a).

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.
