<STRONG>PER CURIAM</STRONG>

<BR WP="BR1"><BR WP="BR2">
<P>	The trial court signed the final judgment from which appellant Crae Pease sought
to appeal on October 19, 2000.  Appellant filed a timely motion for new trial on November 6,
2000, thus extending the deadline for filing his notice of appeal to January 17, 2001, ninety days
from the date of the judgment.  <EM>See </EM>Tex. R. App. P. 26.1(a).  However, appellant did not file his
notice of appeal until March 6, 2001, and has no reasonable explanation why this Court has
jurisdiction over the appeal.  Therefore, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.  Tex. R.
App. P. 42.3(a).</P>
