WENDELL WARD, Appellant v. THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Wendell Ward was convicted of aggravated assault and injury to a child. Sentence of fifteen years' imprisonment was imposed in each case on November 5, 2009. No motions for new trial were filed; therefore, appellant's notices of appeal were due by Monday, December 7, 2010. See Tex.R.App. P. 4.1(a), 26.2(a)(1). Appellant's January 5, 2010 notices of appeal are untimely, leaving us without jurisdiction over the appeals. See Slaton v. State, 981 S.W.2d 208, 210 (Tex.Crim.App.1998) (per curiam); Boyd v. State, 971 S.W.2d 603, 605-06 (Tex.App.-Dallas 1998, no pet.). We dismiss the appeals for want of jurisdiction.
