 PRUDENTIAL INSURANCE, DOUGLAS D. MULDER, MICHELLE MULDER,
  KENNETH HOLT, DEANA R. DAVID AND DARRYL E. GLENN, Appellees

                       On Appeal from the 240th District Court
                               Fort Bend County, Texas
                        Trial Court Cause No. 12-DCV-196144

                  MEMORANDUM                        OPINION

      This is an attempted appeal from an order dismissing appellant’s cause of action
under section 11.103 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code. Pursuant to chapter
11 of the Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, Donald Ray McCray has been
declared a vexatious litigant and is therefore subject to a pre-filing order under section
11.101. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code §§ 11.101, 11.103 (West Supp. 2012).

      Under section 11.103(a), the clerk of this court may not file an appeal presented by
a vexatious litigant subject to a pre-filing order under section 11.101 unless the litigant
obtains an order from the local administrative judge permitting the filing, or the appeal is
from a pre-filing order entered under section 11.101 designating a person a vexatious
litigant. Tex. Civ. Prac. & Rem. Code Ann. § 11.103(a) & (d) (West Supp. 2012). This
is not an appeal from a pre-filing order entered under section 11.101.

       On October 25, 2012, notification was transmitted to all parties of the court’s
intention to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction unless appellant, within ten days
of the date of the order, filed a copy of the order from the local administrative judge
permitting the filing of this appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a). Appellant filed no
response.

       Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.

                                                 PER CURIAM

Panel consists of Chief Justice Hedges and Justices Boyce and Busby.
