Daryl Allan Hatfield, Appellant v. The State of Texas, Appellee (2014)

MEMORANDUM OPINION

On February 21, 2014, the trial court entered a Nunc Pro Tunc in cause number 2012–CR–8888.   On October 14, 2014, Appellant Daryl Allan Hatfield filed a notice of appeal contending error in the Nunc Pro Tunc.

A judgment nunc pro tunc is an appealable order.  Blanton v. State, 369 S.W.3d 894, 903 (Tex.Crim.App.2012).   To perfect an appeal, however, the notice of appeal must be filed within thirty days of the date that the trial court signs the judgment nunc pro tunc.  Dewalt v. State, 417 S.W.3d 678, 689 (Tex. App–Austin 2013), pet. ref'd, 426 S.W.3d 100 (Tex.Crim.App.2014).

“If a notice of appeal is not timely filed, the court of appeals has no option but to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.”  Castillo v. State, 369 S.W.3d 196, 198 (Tex.Crim.App.2012).   On October 27, 2014, we ordered Appellant Hatfield to show cause in writing no later than November 17, 2014, explaining why this appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.   See Blanton, 369 S.W.3d at 903.

No response has been filed.   This appeal is, therefore, dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
