WILBERT NORWOOD STARKS, Appellant v. DAWSON INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, NAVARRO COUNTY, AND NAVARRO COLLEGE, Appellees


From the 13th District Court Navarro County, Texas
Trial Court No. D 48685-TX

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Wilbert Norwood Starks's notice of appeal was filed on April 1, 2021. In a letter dated April 15, 2021, the Clerk of this Court notified Starks that the appeal was subject to dismissal because it appeared the notice of appeal was untimely. The trial court's Judgment in this case was signed on October 30, 2020. Starks's notice of appeal was due November 30, 2020. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1.

In the same letter, Starks was also warned that the Court would dismiss the appeal without further notification unless, within 14 days from the date of the letter, a response was filed showing grounds for continuing the appeal. Starks timely responded but did not show grounds for continuing the appeal.

Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
