Appealed from the County Court at Law No. 3 of Travis County, Nos. C-1-CR-01-574616 C-1-CR-01-589507, Honorable David Crain, Judge Presiding. Dismissed for Want of Jurisdiction

Before Justices PATTERSON, PURYEAR and HENSON.


MEMORANDUM OPINION


On July 1, 2002, in cause number C-1-CR-01-574616, Daniel Romon Quiroz pleaded guilty to possessing marihuana. The trial court adjudged him guilty and assessed punishment at 120 days in jail. In assessing punishment, the court took into consideration Quiroz's admission of guilt in cause number C-1-CR-01-589507, in which he was accused of deadly conduct. See Tex. Penal Code Ann. § 12.45 (West 2003). On November 13, 2007, Quiroz filed a pro se notice of out of time appeal in each cause. There is no conviction to appeal in cause number C-1-CR-01-589507. The notice of appeal in cause number C-1-CR-01-574616 was untimely. We lack jurisdiction to dispose of the purported appeals in any manner other than by dismissing them for want of jurisdiction. See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208 (Tex.Crim.App. 1998); Olivo v. State, 918 S.W.2d 519, 522-23 (Tex.Crim.App. 1996). The appeals are dismissed.
