                              COURT OF APPEALS

                    THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                      CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG

KATHERINE TIFFANY,                                                            Appellant,

                                                v.

MELANIE VAN MAREN,                                                              Appellee.

            On appeal from a Justice Court, Precinct 1, Place 3
                        of Nueces County, Texas.

                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

                  Before Justices Longoria, Silva, and Peña
                   Memorandum Opinion by Justice Silva

       Appellant, Melanie Van Maren, attempted to appeal a judgment in cause number

20EV-0211-JP13. Upon review of the documents before the Court, it appears there is no

final, appealable order. On October 12, 2023, 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 or otherwise cure this

defect.

       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.

id. R. 42.3(a), (c).

                                                               CLARISSA SILVA
                                                               Justice

Delivered and filed on the
25th day of January, 2024.
