A.M.C.
filed a pro se “Notice of Appeal” from a master’s order regarding child
custody.  In her notice of appeal, A.M.C. requested a trial de novo.  After
reviewing the notice of appeal and the documents on file in this court, the
clerk of this court wrote A.M.C. and notified her that it appeared to this
court that the notice of appeal had been inadvertently filed in this court;
that the notice of appeal was in substance a request for a trial de novo
hearing before the referring court from an associate judge’s order and was not
a notice of appeal from a final, appealable order; and that the appeal should
be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.  See Tex. Fam. Code Ann. § 201.015 (West Supp. 2011).  We
requested that A.M.C. respond in writing and show grounds for continuing this
appeal.  Tex. R. App. P. 42.3. 
A.M.C. has not responded.
Accordingly,
we dismiss the appeal.
