timely motion for new trial, motion to modify the judgment, motion to reinstate, or
request for findings of fact and conclusion of law. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1.
On October 8, 2014, appellant filed a motion to extend time to file the notice

motion to reinstate, or request for findings of fact and conclusion of law.
Accordingly, the notice of appeal was due July 17, 2014.
The court will consider dismissal of the appeal on its own motion for want
of jurisdiction unless any party files a response on or before December 15, 2014,
showing meritorious grounds for continuing the appeal.
