                                     San Antonio, Texas
                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION
                                        No. 04-23-00465-CV

                               IN THE INTEREST OF I.M., a Child

                      From the 57th Judicial District Court, Bexar County, Texas
                                   Trial Court No. 2021-PA-00828
                         Honorable Charles E. Montemayor, Judge Presiding

PER CURIAM

Sitting:          Luz Elena D. Chapa, Justice
                  Irene Rios, Justice
                  Beth Watkins, Justice

Delivered and Filed: June 28, 2023

DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION

           Appellant Roselynn Salazar Ojeda filed a notice of appeal on April 27, 2023. The Texas

Rules of Appellate Procedure require a party to state the date of the judgment or order appealed

from in the notice of appeal. TEX. R. APP. P. 25.1(d)(2). Appellant’s notice of appeal does not state

any date of the judgment or order from which she wishes to appeal or otherwise identify any

judgment or order whatsoever. The clerk’s record shows her parental rights were terminated on

March 23, 2022. Assuming appellant seeks to appeal that order, the notice of appeal was due April

12, 2022, TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(b), or a motion for an extension of time was due April 27, 2022.

TEX. R. APP. P. 26.3. Appellant’s April 27, 2023 notice of appeal is therefore untimely. Because

the notice of appeal is untimely, we ordered Appellant to show cause by May 26, 2023 why this

appeal should not be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a). We
                                                                                    04-23-00465-CV

admonished Appellant that if she failed to show cause or respond as ordered, this appeal would be

dismissed without further notice. See id.

       Appellant has not filed a response. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
