MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Rodriguez, Castillo, and Garza
Opinion Per Curiam

         Appellant, JOAQUIN CIBRIAN, attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment
entered by the 28th District Court of Nueces County, Texas.  Sentence in this cause
was imposed on February 13, 2004.  No timely motion for new trial was filed.   The
notice of appeal was due to be filed on March 15, 2004, but was not filed until March
24, 2004.   Said notice of appeal is untimely filed. 
         Tex. R. App. P. 26.3 provides that the court of appeals may grant an extension
of time for filing a 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 notice
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 appeal, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for
want of jurisdiction.  The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
                                                                                 PER CURIAM
Do not publish.
Tex. R. App. P. 47.2(b).

Opinion delivered and filed this
the 29th day of April, 2004.
