MEMORANDUM OPINION1
 
------------
        Appellant 
Sherril Andrewson appeals from the trial court’s judgment signed February 11, 
2004. She filed a motion for new trial on March 12, 2004. Therefore, 
Andrewson’s notice of appeal was due May 11, 2004. Her notice of appeal was 
filed June 9, 2004. She did not file a motion for extension of time to file the 
notice of appeal. Consequently, Andrewson’s notice of appeal was untimely.2
        Because 
the notice of appeal was untimely, we sent a letter to Andrewson requesting a 
response showing grounds for continuing the appeal, as it appeared we lacked 
jurisdiction. We did not receive a response. Because Andrewson’s notice of 
appeal was untimely filed, we dismiss this case for want of jurisdiction.3
