TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

                                        NO. 03-02-00513-CR

                                     Chad Chapman, Appellant

                                                   v.

                                   The State of Texas, Appellee

       FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF RUNNELS COUNTY, 119TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
              NO. 4484, HONORABLE BEN WOODWARD, JUDGE PRESIDING

                Chad Chapman seeks to appeal from a judgment of conviction for aggravated sexual

assault. Sentence was imposed on May 17, 2002. There was no motion for new trial. The deadline for

perfecting appeal was therefore June 17, 2002. Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Notice of appeal was filed on

August 8, 2002. Under the circumstances, 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.

                                              __________________________________________
