                   of Hidalgo County, Texas.

                         MEMORANDUM OPINION
                 Before Justices Yañez, Garza, and Benavides
                      Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      Appellant, Robert Weiss, attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment entered

by the 92nd District Court of Hidalgo County, Texas, in cause number C-789-10-A.

Judgment in this cause was signed on May 5, 2010. A motion for new trial was filed on

June 4, 2010. Pursuant to Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 26.1, appellant=s notice of

appeal was due on August 3, 2010, but was not filed until August 27, 2010.
       On August 30, 2010, 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. Appellant was advised that,

if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this Court=s

letter, the appeal would be dismissed. To date, no response has been received from

appellant providing a reasonable explanation for the late filing of the notice of appeal.

           The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file,

appellant=s failure to timely perfect his appeal, and appellant=s failure to respond to this

Court=s notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of

jurisdiction.   Accordingly, the appeal is hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF

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



                                                 PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
14th day of October, 2010.
