Opinion
IN THE TENTH COURT OF APPEALS
No. 10-22-00243-CR
MICHAEL TAPIA, Appellant v.
THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
From the 19th District Court McLennan County, Texas Trial Court No. 2015-74-C1
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Michael Tapia appeals his 2016 convictions for aggravated assault against a public
servant and evading arrest or detention with a vehicle. Because Tapia’s notice of appeal
was due August 25, 2016, it’s filing on July 25, 2022 is untimely. See TEX. R. APP. P.
26.2(a)(1).
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) (no appellate jurisdiction
where notice of appeal is untimely). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
