843 S.W.2d 732 (1992)
Charles T. CONAWAY, Appellant,
v.
Jose LOPEZ, Appellee.
No. 3-92-493-CV.
Court of Appeals of Texas, Austin.
December 9, 1992.
No brief filed, for appellant.
No brief filed, for appellee.
Before CARROLL, C.J., and JONES and KIDD, JJ.
*733 PER CURIAM.
Appellant Charles T. Conaway seeks to appeal from a default judgment rendered by the county court at law of Travis County in favor of appellee Jose Lopez. Lopez has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. We will grant the motion and dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.
The trial court rendered judgment on May 26, 1992; therefore, a motion for new trial was due no later than June 25, 1992. Tex.R.Civ.P. 329b(a). Conaway, however, filed a sworn motion for new trial on July 27,1992, asserting that he and his attorney first received notice of the May 26th judgment on July 10, 1992. See Tex.R.Civ.P. 306a(4); Tex.R.App.P. 5(b)(4). The trial court held a hearing on the motion for new trial and signed an order overruling it on August 10, 1992.
Conaway then filed his cost bond on appeal on August 24, 1992. See Tex.R.App.P. 41(a). The Clerk of this Court received the transcript on September 21, 1992, and the statement of facts on September 24, 1992. See Tex.R.App.P. 54(a). The procedural history of the proceeding is set out in the appendix. Conaway timely filed the motion for new trial and cost bond, and timely tendered the transcript and statement of facts only if he complied with the requisites of Rules 306a and 5 to establish July 10th as the date on which he or his attorney received notice of the judgment. Memorial Hosp. v. Gillis, 741 S.W.2d 364, 365 (Tex.1987); Thermex Energy Corp. v. Rantec Corp., 766 S.W.2d 402, 405 (Tex.App. Dallas 1989, no writ) (compliance with Rule 306a is jurisdictional).
The appellate timetable runs from the date an adversely affected party or the attorney receives notice or acquires actual knowledge of the signing of the judgment if, within twenty days after a judgment is signed, the party or the attorney has not received notice from the trial-court clerk or acquired actual knowledge of the judgment. Tex.R.Civ.P. 306a(4); Tex.R.App.P. 5(b)(4); Hot Shot Messenger Serv. Inc. v. State, 798 S.W.2d 413, 414 (Tex.AppAustin 1990, writ denied). To benefit from these provisions, Conaway had to prove in the trial court the date on which he or his attorney first received notice or acquired actual knowledge of the signing of the judgment and that the date was more than twenty days after the judgment was signed. Tex.R.Civ.P. 306a(5); Tex. R.App.P. 5(b)(5); Sur v. R.W. Otts, Inc., 800 S.W.2d 647, 648 (Tex.App.Houston [14th Dist.] 1990, writ denied); Sabine Touring & Transp. Co. v. Evans, 709 S.W.2d 783 (Tex.App.Beaumont 1986, writ ref'd n.r.e.).
The order overruling the motion for new trial does not include a finding regarding the date of notice. Conaway had the burden to secure such a finding or to bring the omission to the attention of the trial court. See Tex.R.App.P. 5(b)(5). On October 19, 1992, Conaway obtained a finding from a different trial judge that Conaway and his attorney first received notice of the judgment on July 10, 1992. Lopez argues that this finding does not establish this Court's jurisdiction over the appeal because the trial court filed the finding after the expiration of its plenary power over the cause. See Tex.R.Civ.P. 329b(e).
Rule 306a affords a party who did not have notice or actual knowledge of a judgment thirty days from the date he acquired such notice or knowledge to invoke the trial court's plenary jurisdiction. Gillis, 741 S.W.2d at 365; see Pope v. Moore, 729 S.W.2d 125, 126 (Tex.App.Dallas 1987, writ ref'd n.r.e.); Mori Seiki Co. v. Action Mach. Shop, Inc., 696 S.W.2d 414, 415 (Tex.App.Houston [14th Dist.] 1985, no writ). In the instant cause, the trial court had no jurisdiction to consider the motion for new trial unless Conaway established that he first received notice of judgment on July 10, 1992. Tex.R.Civ.P. 306a(4), (5), 329b(d). Assuming that Conaway successfully met his burden under Rule 306a, the trial court's plenary power expired on September 9, 1992, thirty days after the court overruled Conaway's motion for new trial.
Conaway has not, however, met his burden to obtain the requisite finding, pursuant *734 to Rule 5. Texas R.App.P. 5(b)(5)[1] provides, "The trial court shall find the date upon which the party or his attorney first either received a notice of the judgment or acquired actual knowledge of the signing of the judgment at the conclusion of the hearing and include this finding in the court's order." (Emphasis added). By not obtaining a finding until October 19, 1992, Conaway has not complied with Rule 5 which governs the extension of the appellate time limits. Tex.R.App.P. 5(b)(1); cf. Tex.R.Civ.P. 306a(1). Accordingly, we conclude that Conaway did not perfect an appeal timely.
For the preceding reasons, we grant Lopez's motion to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. The appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
