                                Court of Appeals

                          THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

                      On Appeal from the 282nd Judicial District Court

                             MEMORANDUM OPINION
                          Before Justices Bridges, O’Neill, and Brown
                                  Opinion by Justice O’Neill
       Arturo Solorzano Medrano was convicted of continuous sexual abuse of a child under

fourteen years of age. Sentence of twenty-five years’ imprisonment was imposed in open court

on November 1, 2013. No motion for new trial was filed; therefore, appellant’s notice of appeal

was due by Monday, December 2, 2013. See TEX. R. APP. P. 4.1(a), 26.2(a)(1). Appellant’s pro

se notice of appeal is file-stamped January 30, 2014. It reflects that it was signed on January 25,

2014, and the envelope in which it was mailed is post-marked January 27, 2014. The notice of

appeal is untimely as to the November 1, 2013 sentencing date, leaving us without jurisdiction

over the appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a)(1); Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208, 210 (Tex.

Crim. App. 1998) (per curiam); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 523 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996).
       We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
