Valerie J. Anderson v. State

IN THE

TENTH COURT OF APPEALS

No. 10-03-064-CR

     VALERIE J. ANDERSON,

                                                                              Appellant

     v.

     THE STATE OF TEXAS,

                                                                              Appellee

From the 54th District Court

McLennan County, Texas

Trial Court # 2002-1113-C

MEMORANDUM OPINION

      Valerie J. Anderson pleaded guilty to aggravated assault. Pursuant to a plea bargain, the court sentenced her to five years’ imprisonment. The court imposed sentence on October 23, 2002. Anderson filed a pro se notice of appeal on February 19, 2003.

      The clerk’s record reflects that Anderson did not file a motion for new trial. Thus, her notice of appeal was due on November 22, 2002. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Anderson filed her notice of appeal nearly three months late. Because Anderson did not timely file a notice of appeal, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208, 210 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998); Fowler v. State, 16 S.W.3d 426, 428 (Tex. App.—Waco 2000, pet. ref’d).

                                                                   PER CURIAM

Before Chief Justice Davis,

      Justice Vance, and

      Justice Gray

Appeal dismissed for want of jurisdiction
