MEMORANDUM OPINION

PER CURIAM.

Artis Levere Henderson entered a negotiated guilty plea to the offense of injury to an elderly person. Pursuant to the plea bargain agreement, punishment was assessed at three years, six months confinement and a $2000 fine. Sentence was imposed on March 7, 2001. No motion for new trial was filed; therefore, appellant's notice of appeal was due by April 6, 2001. See Tex.R.App.P. 26.(a)(1). Appellant filed a notice of appeal on May 13, 2003. Because the notice of appeal is untimely, we have no jurisdiction over the appeal. See 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); Boyd v. State, 971 S.W.2d 603, 605-06 (Tex.App.-Dallas 1998, no pet.). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
