MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Hinojosa and Garza

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, A. E. JOHNSON, attempted to perfect an appeal from an order entered by County Court at Law No. 1 of Harris County, Texas, in cause no. 816804. The clerk s record was received on December 21, 2004.

Upon review of the clerk s record, it appeared that the order from which this appeal was taken was not a final appealable order. Additionally, it was noted that if the order was in fact an appealable order, it appeared that the appeal had not been timely perfected. Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 42.3, notice of these defects were given so that steps could be taken to correct the defects, if it could be done. Appellant was advised that, if the defects were not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. On March 11, 2005, appellant filed a response to this Court s notice; however, the response fails to correct the defects or show this Court s jurisdiction.

The Court, having considered the documents on file, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.

PER CURIAM

Memorandum Opinion delivered and filed

this the 9th day of June, 2005.
