V.



BSL GOLF CORP., d/b/a WEDGEWOOD GOLF COURSE, ET AL., Appellees




On Appeal from the 284th District Court

Montgomery County, Texas

Trial Cause No. 01-01-00263 CV




MEMORANDUM OPINION

We received notice of appeal filed June 24, 2003. We notified the parties that the notice of appeal did not appear to have been timely filed. No party responded to our inquiry regarding jurisdiction. The judgment was signed on March 24, 2003. No motion for new trial was timely filed. A notice of appeal was filed on June 24, 2003, more than 30 days from the date the judgment was signed. Appellant did not file a timely motion for extension of time with this Court and did not perfect a restricted appeal. The Court finds appellant failed to timely perfect an appeal, and further failed to present a reasonable explanation of his failure to timely perfect appeal. The Court further finds that it lacks jurisdiction over this appeal.

It is therefore ORDERED that this appeal be DISMISSED for want of jurisdiction.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
