                                 Before Justices Bridges, Richter, and Lang
                                          Opinion By Justice Lang

        By notice of appeal filed December 2, 2011, Bobette Janean Hyman appeals the trial court’s

August 23, 2011 final decree of divorce.          Because she timely requested findings of fact and

conclusions of law, Hyman’s notice of appeal was due by November 21, 2011, or with a proper

extension motion, by December 6, 2011. See TEX. R. App. P. 26.1(a)(4), 26.3. Hyman’s notice of

appeal was filed within the fifteen-day extension period provided by rule 26.3, but she did not file

an extension motion. Accordingly, by letter dated August 6, 2012, we directed her to file a motion

to extend time to file the appeal in accordance with rule of appellate procedure 10.5(b). See id.

10.5(b), 26.3(b); Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615 (Tex. 1997). We cautioned Hyrnan that if we

failed to   receive   the motion within ten days, we would, without further notice, dismiss the appeal
for want ofjurisdiction. To date, Hyman has not filed the motion or otherwise communicated with
