Donald Rhodes, Appellant v. Laura Pena Tamayo, Appellee
FROM THE 425TH JUDICIAL DISTRICT COURT OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY NO. 20-2205-F425, THE HONORABLE BETSY F. LAMBETH, JUDGE PRESIDING
Before Justices Goodwin, Baker, and Triana
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Gisela D. Triana, Justice
Donald Rhodes, acting pro se, filed a notice of appeal on April 21, 2022, stating that he is appealing the "findings, conclusions, or recommendations" made by the trial court at a March 23, 2022 hearing. However, the clerk's record filed more than a month after that hearing does not contain any final or appealable judgment or order signed by the district court after March 23, 2022.
Rhodes's notice of appeal states that it is filed "pursuant to provisions of § 201.015, Texas Family Code." That statute applies to a party's request for a de novo hearing in the trial court, not an appeal to a court of appeals, and concerns matters referred to an associate judge. See generally Tex. Fam. Code § 201.015.
On May 20, 2022, the Clerk of this Court requested a response from Rhodes as to the basis for our jurisdiction over this appeal and stated that failure to file the response by May 31, 2022, could result in dismissal of this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3. No response has been filed. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See id.
Dismissed for Want of Jurisdiction.
