MEMORANDUM OPINION


Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Yañez and Garza

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam


	Appellant, SUNDRA ELIZABETH SALAZAR, attempted to perfect an appeal from
a judgment entered by the 36th District Court of Aransas County, Texas.  Sentence
in this cause was imposed on August 31, 2006.  No timely motion for new trial was
filed.   The notice of appeal was due to be filed on October 2, 2006, but was not filed
until October 12, 2006.   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 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Do not publish.
