                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      James Ellis Free was convicted of the felony offense of driving while intoxicated

and sentenced to seven years in prison. See TEX. PENAL CODE ANN. § 49.04 (West Supp.

2012). By letter dated August 7, 2012, the Clerk of this Court notified Free that his

appeal was subject to dismissal because the notice of appeal appeared to be untimely.

See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.2(a(2); 44.3. The Clerk further warned Free that his appeal would

be dismissed unless, within 21 days from the date of the letter, a response was filed

showing grounds for continuing the appeal. More than 21 days have passed and no

response has been filed.
        The appeal is dismissed.
