         Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Hinojosa and Yañez  

                                       Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, KAREN WILLIAMSON, attempted to perfect an appeal from an order entered by the 28th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause no. 01-4668-A.  The clerk=s record was received on March 4, 2002. 

Upon review of the clerk=s record, it appeared that the order from which this appeal was taken was not a final appealable order.  Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 42.3, notice of this defect was given so that steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done.  Appellant was advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.  Appellant failed to file a response as requested by this Court=s notice.

The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant=s failure to respond to this Court=s notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
