MEMORANDUM OPINION
Before Justices Rodriguez, Vela, and Perkes
Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam
Appellant, Savannah Robinson, attempts to appeal a judgment entered on May
25, 2011. On July 7, 2011, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that the notice of
appeal bears the incorrect cause number, 07-2834-F, and that the correct cause number
is CL-07-2834-F. 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 proper notice of appeal was
not filed in the trial court within ten days from the date of receipt of this Court's letter, the
matter would be referred to the trial court for further action. On September 20, 2011, this
Court notified appellant that the Court had not received a response to the July 7, 2011,
letter. Appellant was advised that the notice of appeal bears the incorrect cause number
and that failure to cure the defect within ten days would result in the appeal being
dismissed. No response has been received from appellant.
Appellant has failed to amend the notice of appeal within the time prescribed by
this Court. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(f), 37.1. Additionally, appellant has failed to
comply with a requirement of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure and a notice from
the Clerk of the Court. See id. 42.3(c). The Court, having examined and fully
considered the documents on file, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed
for want of jurisdiction. Accordingly, the appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF
JURISDICTION. See id. 42.3(a), (c).
PER CURIAM
Delivered and filed the 3rd
day of November, 2011.
