<P>	Appellant's notice of appeal was due to be filed on or before March 11, 1999.  As
it was not filed until March 18, 1999, we will dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.  <EM>See</EM>

<P>	Final Judgment in the trial court was signed on February 9, 1999.  Appellant's
Notice of Appeal was not filed until March 18, 1999.  By letter dated June 7, 1999, the Clerk of
this Court notified all parties that the Notice of Appeal did not appear to be timely filed and
appellant was given the opportunity to correct this deficiency by June 17, 1999.  <EM>See Verburgt v.
Garner</EM>, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617 (Tex. 1997).  Thus far, appellant has failed to respond. 
Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal for want of jurisdiction.  <EM>See</EM> Tex. R. App. P. 26.1(a)(1).</P>
