Opinion

IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-24-00300-CR

CORAIN LAMONT WATSON, Appellant v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

From the 361st District Court Brazos County, Texas Trial Court No. 24-00730-CRF-361

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Corain Watson filed a pro se notice of appeal attempting to challenge his

conviction and sentence imposed on February 28, 2024. Watson did not file a motion for

new trial; therefore, his notice of appeal was due within 30 days after the date his sentence

was imposed in open court. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a). Watson’s notice of appeal is dated

August 5, 2024 and was filed in the trial court on September 16, 2024. We have no jurisdiction of an untimely appeal, and this appeal must be dismissed. See Olivo v. State,

918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).

Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
