Memorandum Opinion Delivered and Filed February 16, 2006.
On Appeal from the 107th District Court of Cameron County, Texas
Before Justices HINOJOSA, YAZEZ and GARZA.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellant, JORGE ALBERTO CORONADO, attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment entered by the 107th District Court of Cameron County, Texas, in cause number 2005-08-4446-A. Judgment in this cause was signed on November 3, 2005. An untimely motion for new trial was filed on December 6, 2005. Pursuant to Tex.R.App.P. 26.1, appellant's notice of appeal was due on December 5, 2005, but was not filed until December 16, 2005.
Notice of this defect was given 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. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
