TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

                                        NO. 03-02-00141-CV

                                    Beverly J. Baker, Appellant

                                                  v.

                                  Elester Williams, Jr., Appellee

        FROM THE COUNTY COURT AT LAW NO. 3 OF WILLIAMSON COUNTY
  NO. 98-1628-F368-FC3, HONORABLE DONALD HIGGINBOTHAM, JUDGE PRESIDING

               On February 15, 2002, the County Court at Law Number 3 of Williamson County

signed an “Order to Appear” directing Beverly J. Baker to appear in response to Elester Williams,

Jr.’s “Motion for Enforcement.” The order directed Baker to appear “in the Courthouse at Austin,

TX” on March 14, 2002. According to Baker’s notice of appeal, she appeared in Austin and was

informed that her matter was a Williamson County case and that Travis County’s records did not

reflect a transfer to Travis County. She filed a notice of appeal with regard to any order that resulted

from any hearing that might have been held in Williamson County on March 14, 2002.

                The Williamson County Clerk’s Office has searched its records and informed this

Court in writing that the scheduled hearing was passed; no hearing was held and no order signed.
Because no order exists from which an appeal can be perfected, this Court must dismiss the appeal

for want of jurisdiction. Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).

                                             __________________________________________
