                                        ------------

      In this medical malpractice case, Appellant Areta Nelson attempts to appeal

from the trial court’s March 11, 2010 order granting Appellee David Graybill, D.O.’s

motion to dismiss her claims Against him. 2 Because such an appeal is accelerated, 3

           See Tex. R. App. P. 28.1(a).
Appellant’s notice of appeal was due March 31, 2010, 4 but she did not file it until

June 9, 2010, which was untimely. 5

      On June 21, 2010, we notified Appellant that her appeal was subject to

dismissal for want of jurisdiction unless, by July 1, 2010, she filed a response

showing grounds for continuing the appeal. 6        No response has been filed.

Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction. 7
