COURT OF APPEALS SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS FORT WORTH NO. 02-13-00382-CV SHEILA WILSON APPELLANT V. TARRANT COUNTY CONSTABLES, ITS AGENTS, ASSIGNS AND/OR SUCCESSORS IN INTEREST, ITS AFFIANTS, U.S. PERSONS OF INTEREST (PERSON, FIRMS, CORPORATIONS AND POLITICAL ENTITIES), AND FEDERAL NATIONAL MORTGAGE ASSOCIATION, ITS AGENTS AND/OR SUCCESSORS IN INTEREST, AND ITS AFFIANTS APPELLEES ---------FROM COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 1 OF TARRANT COUNTY ---------- MEMORANDUM OPINION 1 ---------Sheila Wilson appeals from a September 9, 2013 order dismissing her suit. Although her notice of appeal was due October 9, 2013, she did not mail it for filing until October 25, 2013; therefore, her notice of appeal was untimely. See Tex. R. App. P. 9.2(b), 26.1(a)(1), 26.3. On October 28, 2013, we sent appellant a letter indicating our concern that we do not have jurisdiction over the appeal because the notice of appeal is untimely and stating that unless she filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal, the appeal could be dismissed. Although appellant filed a response, it does not show grounds for continuing the appeal. Because appellant s notice of appeal is untimely, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(a), 26.1(a)(1), 42.3(a), 43.2(f); Crites v. Collins, 284 S.W.3d 839, 840 (Tex. 2009) (indicating that jurisdiction vests with a timely-filed notice of appeal); Howlett v. Tarrant Cnty., 301 S.W.3d 840, 843 (Tex. App. Fort Worth 2009, pet. denied) (op. on reh g) ( A timely-filed notice of appeal confers jurisdiction on this court, and absent a timely[-]filed 1 See Tex. R. App. P. 47.4. 2 notice of appeal, we must dismiss the appeal. ). PER CURIAM PANEL: LIVINGSTON, C.J.; DAUPHINOT and GARDNER, JJ. DELIVERED: December 12, 2013 3
