COURT OF APPEALS
THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________ _____
JUAN L. AGUILAR, ET AL., Appellants,
v.
UNION CARBIDE CORPORATION, ET AL., Appellees.
_________________________________________________________ _________
On appeal from the 319th District Court
of Nueces County, Texas.

MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Hinojosa, Rodriguez, and Castillo
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam
Appellants, JUAN L. AGUILAR, ET AL., attempted to perfect an appeal from an order entered by the 319th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause no.00-00637-G. The clerk=s record was received on March 10, 2006.
A review of the clerk=s record in this cause fails to affirmatively reflect that this Court has jurisdiction over this appeal. First, the record fails to reflect that the order from which this appeal is taken is a final, appealable judgment. Second, it appears that several parties have filed suggestions of bankruptcy; however, the record fails to reflect that any bankruptcy stay has been lifted or the case otherwise remanded to the trial court. Finally, it does not appear that 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 file a response as requested by 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
filed this 1st day of June, 2006.
