                     MEMORANDUM OPINION
 
               Before Justices
Hinojosa, Rodriguez, and Garza
                       Memorandum Opinion Per
Curiam
 

Appellant, LORENZO
CHARLES GARRETT, attempted to perfect 
appeals from judgments entered by the County Court of Gonzales County, Texas. 
Sentence was imposed on February 2, 2006.  The notices of appeal were due to be filed on
March 6, 2006, but were not filed until March 10,
2006.   Said notices of appeal are
untimely filed. 
Tex. R. App. P. 26.3
provides that the court of appeals may grant an extension of time for filing
notice of appeal if such notice is filed within 
fifteen days of the last day allowed and within the same period a motion
is filed in the court of appeals reasonably explaining the need for such
extension.  Appellant failed to file his
notices of appeal and a motion requesting an extension of time within such
period. 
The Court, having
considered the documents on file and appellant's failure to timely perfect his
appeals, is of the opinion that the appeals should be dismissed for want of
jurisdiction.  The appeals are hereby
DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).
 
Memorandum Opinion delivered and filed this
the 18th day of May, 2006.
