Scott
L. Gibson has filed in this court a motion for an out of time appeal.  Gibson
is challenging the 1993 proceedings in the trial court.  He states in his
motion that his petition for writ of habeas corpus was denied in 2003 and that
the Court of Criminal Appeals denied his writ of mandamus.

An
appeal is perfected by the timely filing of a notice of appeal pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 25.2 and 26.2.  Absent a timely notice of
appeal or a timely motion for extension of time, this court lacks jurisdiction
to entertain an appeal.  Tex. R. App. P.
26.3; Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex. Crim.
App.1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519 (Tex. Crim. App.1996); Rodarte v. State, 860 S.W.2d
108 (Tex. Crim. App.1993); Shute v. State, 744 S.W.2d 96 (Tex. Crim.
App.1988).  
The
motion is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
