See Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997). By order dated July 8, 2013, appellant was ordered to show cause in writing by July 23, 2013, why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant did not respond to the order. Because appellant s notice of appeal was untimely filed, this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. PER CURIAM -2-
