THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS
CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________
IN THE INTEREST OF E.J.C., A CHILD ____________________________________________________________
ON APPEAL FROM THE 24TH DISTRICT COURT OF DEWITT COUNTY, TEXAS ____________________________________________________________
MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Tijerina and Peña Memorandum Opinion by Justice Tijerina
This cause is before the Court on its own motion. On June 17, 2024, the Clerk of
the Court notified appellant that the appeal has not been timely perfected, so that steps
could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done. Appellant was advised that, if the
defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of the Court’s letter, the appeal
would be dismissed. The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file and
appellant’s failure to timely perfect his appeal, is of the opinion that the appeal should be
dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Accordingly, the appeal is hereby dismissed for want of
jurisdiction. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a)(c).
JAIME TIJERINA Justice
Delivered and filed on the 29th day of August, 2024.
