In The Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ____________________ NO. 09-15-00434-CV ____________________ IN THE MATTER OF J.L.M. ________________________________________________________________________ On Appeal from the 88th District Court Hardin County, Texas Trial Cause No. 1661 ________________________________________________________________________ MEMORANDUM OPINION On August 25, 2015, J.L.M. filed a notice of appeal from a judgment that the trial court signed on October 25, 2013. We notified the parties that the appeal would be dismissed because the notice of appeal was filed too late to perfect an appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1; see also In re G.C.F., 42 S.W.3d 194, 196 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth 2001, no pet.) (a notice of appeal concerning matters arising out of a juvenile adjudication proceeding is due within thirty days of the signing of the original disposition order). The appellant filed a response in which he states that he 1 desires to pursue an appeal, but does not establish that the notice of appeal was timely filed. The appellant failed to file a notice of appeal within the time for which we may grant an extension of time to perfect an appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a). APPEAL DISMISSED. ________________________________ STEVE McKEITHEN Chief Justice Submitted on December 22, 2015 Opinion Delivered December 23, 2015 Before McKeithen, C.J., Kreger and Horton, JJ. 2
