RE: Court of Appeals Number: 02-15-00375-CV Trial Court Case Number: 2013-PR02467-1

Style: Estate of Joe J. Johnson, Jr, Deceased The court has received a copy of the notice of appeal in this case. See Tex. R. App. P. 25.1(e). The court is concerned it may not have jurisdiction over this appeal because the notice of appeal was not timely filed. Tex. R. App. P. 26.1. The trial court's judgment was signed December 22, 2014. No post- judgment motion was filed to extend the appellate deadline, so the notice of appeal was due January 21, 2015, but was not filed until October 27, 2015.

Unless the appellant or any party desiring to continue the appeal files with the court, on or before Monday, December 28, 2015, a response showing grounds for continuing the appeal, this appeal may be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a), 44.3.

Respectfully yours,

DEBRA SPISAK, CLERK
