Before Justices Dorsey, Rodriguez, and Castillo

Opinion Per Curiam


Appellants, TOBY SALINAS AND SHANNA SALINAS , attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment entered by the 28th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause number 00-4961-A . Judgment in this cause was signed on March 26, 2001 . A timely motion for new trial was filed on April 20, 2001. Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 26.1, appellants' notice of appeal was due on June 25, 2001 , but was not filed until July 6, 2001 .

Notice of this defect was given so that steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done. Appellants were advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this Court's letter, the appeal would be dismissed. To date, no response has been received from appellants.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file, appellant's failure to timely perfect his appeal, and appellants' failure to respond to this Court's notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
