Input (English): is signed. Tex.R.App.P. 41(a)(1). The Bank argues that the Restre-pos’ failure to file their affidavit in the cause number assigned to the severed party within thirty days of the severance deprives this Court of jurisdiction. A court of appeals has jurisdiction over an appeal when an appellant files an instrument that is “a bona fide attempt to invoke appellate court jurisdiction.” City of San Antonio v. Rodriguez, 828 S.W.2d 417, 418 (Tex.1992) (per curiam); Mu on for new trial filed under old cause number, but seeking new trial as to a severed party, extends the appellate timetable and allows perfection of an appeal as a bona fide attempt to invoke appellate jurisdiction, making the court of appeals’ dismissal improper); Grand Prairie Independent School Dist., 813 S.W.2d at 500 (<HOLDING>).
