v.

WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A., as successor in interest to Wachovia Bank,
N.A.; WELLS FARGO HOME MORTGAGE, INC.

                                                  Defendants-Appellees



                          Appeal from the United States
                 for the Western District of Texas, Austin Division
                           USDC No. 1;11-cv-00312-LY


Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS and ELROD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*
        The Plaintiffs-Appellants, Xenos, Justin and Jonathan Yuen, appeal the
district court’s dismissal of their claims against the defendants. Based on our
conclusion that we do not have jurisdiction to consider the issues raised in the
appellants’ brief we dismiss this appeal.
        In this case, which was removed from Texas state court, the Yuens
challenge defendant Wells Fargo’s foreclosure of the mortgage on their property.


        *
         Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
      Case: 11-50542   Document: 00511713046       Page: 2   Date Filed: 01/04/2012



                                     No. 11-50542

After removal, Wells Fargo filed a Motion to Dismiss which the district court
granted, issuing final judgment of dismissal on May 17, 2011. The Yuens filed
a Motion for Reconsideration under Rule 60(b) on May 31, 2011. The district
court denied that motion on June 14, 2011. The Yuens filed a Notice of Appeal
on June 15, 2011 appealing “the final judgment entered in this action on the
17th day of May, 2011.”
         Although their Notice of Appeal references only the final judgment issued
on the defendants’ Motion to Dismiss, in the brief filed to this court the Yuens
do not argue the merits of that order. Rather, their arguments are directed at
the district court’s denial of their Motion for Reconsideration. Rule 3(c) of the
Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure require that the Notice of Appeal must
“designate the judgment, order or part thereof being appealed.” The Notice of
Appeal filed by the Yuen’s did not designate the district court’s denial of the
Motion for Reconsideration as an order being appealed.
         Where the appellant notices the appeal of a specified judgment only
         or a part thereof, . . . this court has no jurisdiction to review other
         judgments or issues which are not expressly referred to and which
         are not impliedly intended for appeal.

Capital Parks, Inc. v. Southeastern Advertising and Sales System, Inc., 30 F.3d
627 (5th Cir. 1994), quoting Pope v. MCI Telecommunications Corp., 937 F.2d
258, 266 (5th Cir. 1991), cert. denied, 112 S.Ct. 1956 (1992). The timing and
nature of the district court’s orders and the notice of appeal in Capital Parks are
indistinguishable from the facts of this case. We conclude that because the
Yuen’s Notice of Appeal did not specifically mention the district court’s ruling on
its Motion for Reconsideration, the merits of that order are not properly before
us.
         Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED.
