                           MEMORANDUM OPINION

      The trial court signed the judgment on August 22, 2013. The notice of

appeal was due to be filed by September 23, 2013. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1. Cathy

Brackeen King filed a notice of appeal on December 3, 2013. The Court notified

the parties that the notice of appeal did not appear to have been timely filed, but the

appellant did not file a response within the time specified in the notice.




                                           1
      The appellant failed to file a notice of appeal within the time for which we

may grant an extension of time to perfect an appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. The

appellant also failed to respond to a notice from the clerk requiring a response

within a specified time. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(c). We dismiss the appeal for

lack of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a).

      APPEAL DISMISSED.
