TAJUAN LAMAR HARRIS,
                                                              Appellant
v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS,
                                                              Appellee

                           From the County Court at Law
                               Navarro County, Texas
                             Trial Court No. C41835-CR

                            MEMORANDUM OPINION

       Tajuan Lamar Harris appeals his conviction for manufacture/delivery of a

controlled substance, over four grams but less than 200 grams. See TEX. HEALTH & SAFETY

CODE § 481.112(a),(d). According to the judgment, Harris’s sentence was imposed on

April 14, 2023. Harris's notice of appeal was due May 15, 2023. See TEX. R. APP. P.

26.2(a)(1). Thus, it's filing on August 24, 2023, is untimely. Id.; Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d

519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996) (“A defendant's notice of appeal is timely if filed within

thirty days after the day sentence is imposed or suspended in open court….”).
        We have no jurisdiction of an untimely appeal. Olivo, 918 S.W.2d at 522 (no

appellate jurisdiction where notice of appeal is untimely). Accordingly, this appeal is

dismissed. See id. at 523.
