                                MEMORANDUM
OPINION[1]
 
                                              ------------
Appellant Henry Bryant, Jr. attempts to appeal from the
trial court=s judgment signed May 30, 2007.  Appellant did not file a postjudgment motion
to extend the appellate deadline; his notice of appeal was therefore due June
29, 2007.[2]  But he did not file a notice of appeal until
July 2, 2007.

On July 16, 2007, we notified
Appellant that his appeal was subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction
unless, by July 26, 2007, he filed a response showing a reasonable explanation
for the late filing of the notice of appeal.[3]  No response has been filed.  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want
of jurisdiction.[4]
