MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Rodriguez, Castillo, and Garza

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

	Appellant, LEOPOLDO LEAL, attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment
entered by the 28th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause number 06-2821-A.  Judgment in this cause was signed on August 31, 2006.  No timely motion
for new trial was filed.  Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 26.1, appellant's notice of appeal
was due on October 2, 2006, but was not filed until October 19, 2006.  
	Notice of this defect was given so that steps could be taken to correct the
defect, if it could be done.  Appellant was advised that, if the defect was not corrected
within ten days from the date of receipt of this Court's letter, the appeal would be
dismissed.  To date, no response has been received from appellant.
	The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file,
appellant's failure to timely perfect his appeal, and appellant's failure to respond to this
Court's notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of
jurisdiction.  The appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.
							PER CURIAM

Memorandum Opinion delivered and filed this
