Sherril Andrewson v. USI Administrators, Inc.

COURT OF APPEALS

SECOND DISTRICT OF TEXAS

FORT WORTH

NO. 2-04-179-CV

SHERRIL ANDREWSON	APPELLANT

V.

USI ADMINISTRATORS, INC.	APPELLEE

------------

FROM THE 141
ST
 DISTRICT COURT OF TARRANT COUNTY

------------

MEMORANDUM OPINION
(footnote: 1)

------------

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.
(footnote: 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.
