MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Benavides

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam



Appellant, Alfredo Regalado, Individually and d/b/a 4 Aces Bail Bonds, attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment entered by the 398th District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas, in cause number CR-0512-92-I(N). Judgment in this cause was signed on April 30, 2007. A motion for new trial was filed on May 29, 2007. Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 26.1, appellant's notice of appeal was due on July 30, 2007, but was not filed until September 4, 2007.

On October 1, 2007, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done. Appellant was 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 appellant.

The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file, appellant's failure to timely perfect his appeal, and appellant's failure to respond to this Court's notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Accordingly, the appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a)(c).

PER CURIAM



Memorandum Opinion delivered and filed
