                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                        No. 04-11-00730-CR

                                       James Clayton KELLY,
                                             Appellant

                                                   v.

                                        The STATE of Texas,
                                              Appellee

                     From the 379th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                                  Trial Court No. 2010CR2879A
                              Honorable Ron Rangel, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting:          Catherine Stone, Chief Justice
                  Karen Angelini, Justice
                  Marialyn Barnard, Justice

Delivered and Filed: November 30, 2011

DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

           The trial court imposed sentence on August 26, 2011, and appellant did not file a motion

for new trial. The deadline for filing a notice of appeal was therefore September 26, 2011, thirty

days from the date sentence was imposed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a)(1). A notice of appeal

was not filed until October 4, 2011. Appellant did not file a timely motion for extension of time

to file the notice of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3. Because it appeared the notice of appeal
                                                                                      04-11-00730-CR


was not timely filed, we issued a show cause order on October 7, 2011, which stated in pertinent

part:

        A notice of appeal may appear to be late if filed by mail pursuant to Rule 9.2(b) of
        the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure. See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.2; Moore v. State,
        840 S.W.2d 439 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992) (applying mailbox rule to filing of cost
        bond in appeal of criminal case); Villarreal v. State, 199 S.W.3d 30 (Tex. App.—
        San Antonio, 2006, order), disp. on merits, 2007 WL 120625 (No. 04-06-00022-
        CR, Tex. App.—San Antonio, Jan. 19, 2007, pet. ref’d) (holding inmate’s notice
        of appeal was timely filed when delivered in a properly-addressed envelope to jail
        authorities on or before the due date and received by clerk within ten days of
        filing deadline). The certificate of service of the notice on the District Attorney’s
        Office is dated October 4, 2011. However, the notice of appeal does not indicate
        whether it was filed with the clerk’s office by mail and the record does not
        contain a copy of an envelope bearing a postmark.

        We therefore ORDER appellant to file a response on or before October 27, 2011,
        establishing that the notice of appeal was timely filed by mail or otherwise
        showing cause why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
        See Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996) (holding that
        timely notice of appeal is necessary to invoke court of appeals’ jurisdiction). If
        appellant fails to satisfactorily respond within the time provided, the appeal will
        be dismissed. If a supplemental clerk’s record is required to show jurisdiction,
        appellant must ask the trial court clerk to prepare one and must notify the clerk of
        this court that such a request was made.

        Appellant did not file a response. Therefore, because the notice of appeal in this case was

not timely filed, we lack jurisdiction to entertain the appeal. See Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519,

522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996); see also Ater v. Eighth Court of Appeals, 802 S.W.2d 241 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1991) (explaining that writ of habeas corpus pursuant to article 11.07 of the Texas

Code of Criminal Procedure governs out-of-time appeals from felony convictions). Accordingly,

we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
