IN THE MATTER OF THE MARRIAGE OF LORIE RUTH BAKER AND GREGORY JOSEPH FINSTER
On Appeal from the 256th Judicial District Court Dallas County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. DF-17-13669
ORDER
Before the Court is appellant's March 25, 2019 motion to extend time to file his brief. By order dated March 25, 2019, we suspended the deadline for appellant's brief on the merits pending the filing of, by April 1, 2019, a motion for extension of time to file the notice of appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3. Without a timely notice of appeal, this Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal. See id. 25.1(b). Accordingly, we DENY appellant's motion as premature.
A motion for extension of time to file a notice of appeal remains due by April 1, 2019. We again caution appellant that failure to comply may result in dismissal of the appeal without further notice.
