          FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF BELL COUNTY, 27TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT
                NO. 46133, HONORABLE JOE CARROLL, JUDGE PRESIDING

                              MEMORANDUM OPINION

                Bryan P. Suhre seeks to appeal an order denying his request for post-conviction DNA

testing. See Tex. Code Crim. Proc. Ann. art. 64.03, .05 (West Supp. 2003). The order was entered and

signed on November 20, 2002. The deadline for perfecting appeal was therefore December 20, 2002.

Tex. R. App. P. 26.2(a)(1). Notice of appeal was filed on January 2, 2003. No extension of time for filing

notice of appeal was requested. Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. 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.
