  • Dismissed and Memorandum Opinion filed July 9, 2015.
    In The
    Fourteenth Court of Appeals
    NO. 14-15-00451-CV
    RICHARD LEE HELMS AND CLYTEL RENEE HELMS AND ALL
    OCCUPANTS, Appellants
    V.
    US BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, Appellee
    On Appeal from the County Civil Court at Law No. 2
    Harris County, Texas
    Trial Court Cause No. 1060471
    MEMORANDUM                      OPINION
    This is an appeal from a judgment signed April 13, 2015. The notice of
    appeal was due May 13, 2015. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1. Appellants, however, filed
    their notice of appeal on May 22, 2015, a date within 15 days of the due date for
    the notice of appeal. A motion for extension of time is necessarily implied when an
    appellant, acting in good faith, files a notice of appeal beyond the time allowed by
    Rule 26.1, but within the 15-day grace period provided by Rule 26.3 for filing a
    motion for extension of time. See Verburgt v. Dorner, 
    959 S.W.2d 615
    , 617–18
    (Tex. 1997) (construing the predecessor to Rule 26).
    On June 4, 2015, this court ordered appellants to file a proper motion to
    extend time to file the notice of appeal on or before June 15, 2015, or the appeal
    would be dismissed. Appellants filed no response.
    Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
    PER CURIAM
    Panel consists of Justices Christopher, Brown, and Wise.
