The notice of appeal does not state which order by the trial court the appellant intends to appeal. Appellee Karla Belen Garcia, dependent administratrix of the estate, has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. She asserts that appellant is appealing from the trial court’s order of February 19, 2021, which ordered the sale of real property in the probate case. She asserts that appellant did not timely file a motion for new trial related to this order. Therefore, she argues appellant’s notice of appeal was due to be filed on March 22, 2021, but was not filed until April 16, 2021. TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(a). Therefore, she argues because appellant did not timely file a notice of appeal, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal. We ORDER Appellant Roberto Aguilar, Jr. to show cause in writing by July 6, 2021 why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. We suspend all appellate deadlines pending our determination of whether we have jurisdiction over this appeal. _________________________________ Liza A.
