       RE:      Court of Appeals Number:      05-18-00415-CV
                Trial Court Case Number:      DC-16-16186

       Style: Aretha Goines
              v.
              Ally Financial

       Dear Ms. Goines:

              The Court has reviewed the parties’ jurisdictional letter briefs. As no dispute exists
       between the parties that appellant did not participate in the complained-of judgment and the
       record does not reflect appellant timely filed a post-judgment motion or request for findings of
       fact and conclusions of law, it appears the notice of appeal is timely as a notice of restricted
       appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 26.1(c), 30. Accordingly, appellant is directed to file, no later than
       May 31, 2018, an amended notice of appeal that complies with Texas Rule of Appellate
       Procedure 25.1(d)(1)-(5),(7).

                                              Respectfully,

                                              /s/ Lisa Matz, Clerk of the Court
