In the Court of Appeals Second Appellate District of Texas at Fort Worth ___________________________ No. 02-23-00197-CV ___________________________
DIRECTOR FACTORY MANAGEMENT GROUP, LLC, AND CHRISTOPHER COKLEY, Appellants
V.
PNC EQUIPMENT FINANCE, LLC, D/B/A KUBOTA LEASING, Appellee
On Appeal from County Court at Law No. 3 Tarrant County, Texas Trial Court No. 2022-000085-3
Before Sudderth, C.J.; Kerr and Walker, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Justice Walker MEMORANDUM OPINION
Appellants Director Factory Management Group, LLC, and Christopher
Cokley attempt to appeal from the trial court’s final summary judgment. We will
dismiss Appellants’ attempted appeal for want of jurisdiction because the notice of
appeal was not timely filed.
The trial court signed the final summary judgment on January 20, 2023, making
Appellants’ motion for new trial, if any, due by February 21, 2023. See Tex. R. Civ.
P. 329b(a). But Appellants did not file their motion for new trial until February 23,
2023. Because Appellants did not file a timely motion for new trial, their notice of
appeal was due within thirty days of the signing of the final summary judgment—
February 21, 2023. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1; Miller v. Miller, No. 02-21-00176-CV,
2021 WL 3085758, at *1 (Tex. App.—Fort Worth July 22, 2021, no pet.) (mem. op.).
Appellants did not file their notice of appeal until June 2, 2023.
On June 13, 2023, we notified Appellants that we questioned our jurisdiction,
gave them an opportunity to show grounds for continuing the appeal, and warned
that we could dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3.
We received no response from Appellants. Accordingly, we dismiss Appellants’
attempted appeal for want of jurisdiction. See id.; Miller, 2021 WL 3085758, at *1.
