In The
Court of Appeals Ninth District of Texas at Beaumont ________________
NO. 09-15-00182-CV ________________
IN THE INTEREST OF T.C. AND C.C.
___________________________________________________________________
On Appeal from the 317th District Court Jefferson County, Texas Trial Cause No. F-219,032 ___________________________________________________________________
MEMORANDUM OPINION
The trial court signed a judgment terminating L.F.’s parental rights on
February 20, 2015. Notice of appeal was due to be filed on March 12, 2015. See
Tex. R. App. P. 26.1(b). L.F. filed notice of appeal with the trial court on May 12,
2015. On May 18, 2015, we notified the parties that the notice of appeal did not
appear to have been timely filed.
On June 5, 2015, L.F. filed a response with this Court requesting an
extension of time, but failed to establish that the notice of appeal was timely filed.
L.F. filed notice of appeal more than twenty days from the date of the judgment
1 and outside the time during which we may grant an extension of time to perfect
appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. This Court lacks jurisdiction over L.F.’s appeal.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
