MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Yañez, Rodriguez, and Garza
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam
Appellants, REYNALDO F. MORALES, ET AL., attempted to perfect an appeal from an order entered by the 319th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause 98-0394-G.
A review of the documents on file in this cause fails to affirmatively reflect that this Court has jurisdiction over this appeal. First, it does not appear that the order from which this appeal is taken is a final, appealable judgment. Second, it appears that the parties have filed suggestions of bankruptcy; however, the documents on file fail to reflect that any bankruptcy stay has been lifted or the case otherwise remanded to the trial court. Finally, based on the documents on file, we are unable to determine whether the notice of appeal was timely filed. Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 42.3, notice of these defects was given so that steps could be taken to correct the defects, if it could be done. Appellants were advised that, if the defects were not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Appellants failed to respond to this Court's notice.
The Court, having considered the documents on file 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.
PER CURIAM
Memorandum Opinion delivered and
