                             COURT OF APPEALS

                   THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                     CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

            IN THE INTEREST OF J. T., MINOR CHILD
____________________________________________________________

             On appeal from the 430th District Court
                   of Hidalgo County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                          MEMORANDUM OPINION
    Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Benavides and Hinojosa
             Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Contreras

       Appellant Alexis Renee Trevino attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment

entered by the 430th District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas in cause number CW-0249-

16-J. Upon review of the documents before the Court, it appeared that there was no

final, appealable judgment dated January 17, 2019. On January 29, 2019, 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 the notice, the
appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Appellant failed to respond to the

Court’s notice.

       The Hidalgo County Clerk’s Office has informed this Court that no judgment was

entered on January 17, 2019. In terms of appellate jurisdiction, appellate courts only

have jurisdiction to review final judgments and certain interlocutory orders identified by

statute. Lehmann v. Har-Con Corp., 39 S.W.3d 191, 195 (Tex. 2001).

       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.     Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF

JURISDICTION. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a),(c).



                                                               DORI CONTRERAS
                                                               Chief Justice

Delivered and filed the
28th day of February, 2019.
