                           COURT OF APPEALS

                 THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

                    CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG
____________________________________________________________

LOUIS A. OLIVAREZ,                                                          Appellant,

                                           v.

WEST OSO INDEPENDENT

             On appeal from the 319th District Court
                   of Nueces County, Texas.
____________________________________________________________

                        MEMORANDUM OPINION
     Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Garza and Longoria
                  Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

      Appellant, Louis A. Olivarez, proceeding pro se, filed a document entitled “Right of

Notice and Appeal” in this Court on June 8, 2016. According to this pleading, the trial

court had dismissed his case on February 26, 2013 without providing notice to appellant.

Appellant requested this Court to grant reinstatement of the underlying cause. On June
9, 2016, the Clerk of this Court informed appellant that his pleading did not meet the

requirements for an original proceeding and, if the document were construed as a notice

of appeal, the notice of appeal was not timely filed.        See TEX. R. APP. P. 26, 52.

Appellant was advised that the matter would be dismissed if the defect was not corrected

within ten days from the date of receipt of the Court’s directive. On June 28, 2016,

appellant filed a response to this Court’s notice asserting that he had not filed any

pleadings with this Court and contending that this Court “has nothing to do with my civil

case at this time” and does not “have jurisdiction over this case.”

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

appellant’s response, and appellant’s failure to timely perfect his appeal, 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).



                                                         PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the
14th day of July, 2016.
