Appeals from Palo Pinto County
State of Texas
Appellee
On March 14, 2005, Jim Bob Meeks filed in this court a pro se motion entitled Motion for Defendants Rights of an out
of time Appeal. In his motion, appellant challenges his 1999 convic-tions for aggravated sexual assault of a child.
Absent a timely notice of appeal, this court lacks jurisdiction to entertain direct appeals. TEX.R.APP.P. 25.2 & 26.2;
Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex.Cr.App.1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519 (Tex.Cr.App.1996); Rodarte v.
State, 860 S.W.2d 108 (Tex.Cr.App.1993); Shute v. State, 744 S.W.2d 96 (Tex.Cr.App.1988). This court is only
authorized to grant timely motions for extension of time to perfect appeals. TEX.R.APP.P. 26.3. Appellant s motion is
not a timely motion under Rule 26.3.
The appeals are dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
