                                   Jesus Carvajal, Appellant

                                                v.

                                  The State of Texas, Appellee

     FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF TRAVIS COUNTY, 331ST JUDICIAL DISTRICT
           NO. 9044016, HONORABLE BOB PERKINS, JUDGE PRESIDING

                            MEMORANDUM OPINION

               Jesus Carvajal seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for failing to register

as a sex offender. Sentence was imposed on March 14, 2004. There was no motion for new trial.

The deadline for perfecting appeal was therefore April 13, 2004. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1).

Carvajal filed what he styled his “out of time notice of appeal” on April 28, 2004. No extension of

time for filing notice of appeal was requested. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. We lack jurisdiction to

dispose of the purported appeal in any manner other than by dismissing it for want of jurisdiction.

See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex. Crim. App. 1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522-23

(Tex. Crim. App. 1996).
              The appeal is dismissed.

                                            __________________________________________
