From the County Court at Law Navarro County, Texas Trial Court No. C41835-CR

Before Chief Justice Gray, Justice Johnson, and Justice Smith

MEMORANDUM OPINION

TOM GRAY CHIEF JUSTICE

Tajuan Lamar Harris appeals his conviction for manufacture/delivery of a controlled substance, over four grams but less than 200 grams. See TEX. HEALTH &SAFETY CODE § 481.112(a),(d). According to the judgment, Harris's sentence was imposed on April 14, 2023. Harris's notice of appeal was due May 15, 2023. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a)(1). Thus, it's filing on August 24, 2023, is untimely. Id.; Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522 (Tex. Crim. App. 1996) ("A defendant's notice of appeal is timely if filed within thirty days after the day sentence is imposed or suspended in open court....").

We have no jurisdiction of an untimely appeal. Olivo, 918 S.W.2d at 522 (no appellate jurisdiction where notice of appeal is untimely). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed. See id. at 523.

Appeal dismissed.
