BANK OF AMERICA AS SUCCESSOR INTEREST TO INTERFIRST BANK NASSAU BAY, N.A., Appellant

V.

KLEIN INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT, Appellee

On Appeal from the 113th District Court

Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2001-23527

O P I N I O N

According to information provided by the trial court clerk, this is an appeal from a judgment signed on December 18, 2001. It appears that a motion for new trial may have been filed on December 19, 2001. Notice of appeal was filed on December 19, 2001. This Court received the assignment of the appeal on March 11, 2002. See Tex. Gov't Code Ann. § 22.202(h) (Vernon 1988). The record has not been filed and is past due.

On April 25, 2002, the Court issued an order stating as follows:

It appears to this Court, based on the facts as represented by appellant, that there is no final judgment for this Court to review because the trial court has vacated the judgment and ordered a new trial while it retained plenary jurisdiction of the case. Unless within 15 days of the date of this order, a party to this appeal requests and pays for, and the trial court files within such 15-day period, a clerk's record demonstrating that there is a final judgment and that a notice of appeal has been timely filed from that judgment, the appeal will be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.

No clerk's record has been filed, and appellant has not responded to this Court's order of April 25, 2002.

Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
