OPINION[1]
 
Bobby G. Jones, d/b/a Living
Water Construction, appeals a summary judgment for JPMorgan Chase Bank,
N.A.  We dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

The trial court rendered the
summary judgment on May 17, 2006, and Jones filed a motion to set aside or
reconsider the judgment on June 12, 2006. 
Therefore, Jones=s notice of
appeal was due August 15, 2006, but was not filed until September 1, 2006.[2]
On September 14, 2006, we
notified Jones by letter of our concern that we lacked jurisdiction over the
appeal because his notice of appeal was untimely filed.  We stated that his appeal would be dismissed
unless he filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.[3]  No response has been filed.  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want
of jurisdiction.[4]
