                          V.

TRANSPORT AMERICA AND HIRERIGHT, LLC, Appellees

                      On Appeal

        Before Birdwell, Bassel, and Womack, JJ.
          Per Curiam Memorandum Opinion
                            MEMORANDUM OPINION

       In this attempted appeal, pro se appellant Barbara Dixon filed a defective

notice of appeal. Specifically, it did not contain the following:

   • The identity of the trial court and the case’s trial court number and style;

   • The date of the judgment or order appealed from;

   • A statement that the party desires to appeal;

   • The name of the court to which the appeal is taken;

   • The name of each party filing the notice;

   • A verification of the statements contained in the notice of appeal if the
     appellant does not have counsel;

   • A statement, if applicable, that the appellant is presumed indigent and may
     proceed without advance payment of costs as provided in Rule 20.1; and

   • Service of the notice of appeal on all parties to the trial court’s final judgment
     or, in an interlocutory appeal, on all parties to the trial court proceeding.
See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(d), (e).1

       On October 3, 2023, and October 27, 2023, we notified Dixon of the

deficiencies in her notice of appeal and directed her to file an amended notice of

appeal containing the required contents. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(g), 37.1. We advised

Dixon that if she failed to file the amended notice of appeal in the trial court by

November 6, 2023, we would dismiss the appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c), 44.3. We

have not received any response.

        Additionally, Dixon failed to provide this court with a copy of the judgment or
order from which she attempts to appeal.

                                             2
       Because Dixon did not file an amended notice of appeal as required by the

Rules of Appellate Procedure and as directed by the clerk of this court, we dismiss the

appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c), 43.2(f).
