MEMORANDUM OPINION

This is an attempted appeal from a final default judgment rendered on December 8, 2003. Upon this Court=s own motion, we dismiss the cause as moot.

Appellant filed a timely motion for new trial on December 23, 2003. Appellant=s notice of appeal was untimely filed on March 25, 2004. See Tex.R.App.P. 26.1(a). This Court notified the parties of the failure to timely file the notice of appeal and the Court=s lack of jurisdiction. Before this Court issued a dismissal of the appeal for lack of jurisdiction, the Appellant notified the Court that the trial court granted a Bill of Review overturning the default judgment at issue. Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal as moot.
