                       Memorandum
Opinion Per Curiam
 




Appellant, MARY SMITH, attempted to perfect an appeal
from a judgment entered by the 214th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause number 04-CR-1559-F(S1).  Judgment in this cause was signed on September 23, 2004.  No
timely motion for new trial was filed. 
Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 26.1, appellant=s notice of appeal was
due on October 25, 2004, but was not filed until October
27, 2004.  
Notice of this defect was given so that steps could be taken to
correct the defect, if it could be done. 
Appellant was advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten
days from the date of receipt of this Court=s letter, the appeal would be dismissed.  To date, no response has been received from
appellant.
The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file,
appellant=s failure to timely
perfect her appeal, and appellant=s failure to respond
to this Court=s notice, 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
 
 
Memorandum Opinion
delivered and filed this
the 28th
day of July, 2005.
