                            COURT OF APPEALS

                  THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                    CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
______________________________________________________________

                  IN THE INTEREST OF Y. E.
____________________________________________________________

            On Appeal from the County Court at Law No. 4
                     of Hidalgo County, Texas.
______________________________________________________________

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION

                   Before Justices Rodriguez, Garza, and Vela
                       Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      Appellant, Walter Elizondo, attempted to perfect an appeal from a “Master court’s

judgment entered on December 17, 2007.” Upon review of the documents before the

Court, it appears that there is no such order entered by the County Court at Law No. 4 of

Hidalgo, County, Texas, in cause no. F-2067-01-4. It appears that the order from which

this appeal was taken is not an appealable order.

      On May 27, 2008, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant of this defect so that

steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done. See TEX . R. APP. P. 37.1,
42.3. Appellant was advised that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the

date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

Appellant failed to respond to the Court’s notice.

       The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant's failure to correct

the defect in this matter, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of

jurisdiction.   See id.   Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF

JURISDICTION. See id. 42.3(b),(c).

                                                   PER CURIAM

Memorandum Opinion delivered
and filed this the 21st day of August, 2008.
