IN THE COURT OF APPEALS
TWELFTH COURT OF APPEALS DISTRICT
TYLER, TEXAS
GABRIELLA ROBERTS, § APPEAL FROM THE 159TH
APPELLANT
V.
§ JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT
MISTI MONTALVO, INDIVIDUALLY
AND AS SUBSTITUTE TRUSTEE AND
AS FIDUCIARY,
APPELLEE § ANGELINA COUNTY, TEXAS
MEMORANDUM OPINION
PER CURIAM
Gabriella Roberts sued Misti Montalvo, individually and as substitute trustee and
fiduciary, for wrongful foreclosure and breach of fiduciary duty. CitiMortgage, Inc. intervened.
CitiMortgage subsequently filed traditional and no-evidence motions for summary judgment,
joined by Montalvo, and the trial court granted the motions. Roberts filed a notice of appeal.
On August 8, 2017, this Court notified Roberts that her notice of appeal failed to contain
the information specifically required by Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.5 and 25.1. See
TEX. R. APP. P. 9.5 (service of documents), 25.1(e) (service of notice of appeal in civil cases). The
notice warned that, unless Roberts filed a proper notice of appeal on or before September 7, the
appeal would be referred to the Court for dismissal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3. The deadline has
passed and Roberts has not filed a compliant notice of appeal or otherwise responded to this
Court’s August 8 notice.
Because Roberts has failed, after notice, to comply with Rules 9.5 and 25.1 of the Texas
Rules of Appellate Procedure, the appeal is dismissed. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(c).
Opinion delivered September 20, 2017.
Panel consisted of Worthen, C.J., Hoyle, J., and Neeley, J.
