CHIEF JUSTICE JOHNSON delivered the opinion of the Court.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant appeals from a judgment for which his sentences were
imposed on November 19, 2025 and signed by the trial court on that same date.
Trial counsel for Appellant filed a motion for new trial on December 4, 2025.
Trial counsel for Appellant filed a notice of appeal in the trial court on March
2, 2026, which was not received by this Court until March 12, 2026. As applicable to this proceeding, the notice of appeal must have been
filed within 90 days after the sentence is imposed or suspended in open court
because his counsel filed a motion for new trial. TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a)(2). The
notice of appeal was not timely.
Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See TEX.
