MEMORANDUM OPINION
(footnote: 1)

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

In this bond forfeiture case, Appellant Jim Shaw attempts to appeal from the trial court’s judgment signed October 16, 2009.
(footnote: 2)  Because Appellant timely filed a motion for new trial, his notice of appeal was due January 14, 2010, but he did not file his notice of appeal until February 3, 2010, which was untimely.
(footnote: 3) 

On February 10, 2010, we notified Appellant that his appeal was subject to dismissal for want of jurisdiction unless, by February 22, 2010, he filed a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal.
(footnote: 4)  No response has been filed.  Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.
