Opinion

TEXAS COURT OF APPEALS, THIRD DISTRICT, AT AUSTIN

NO. 03-00-00762-CV

Louis Zeno Lawrence, Appellant

v.

Attorney General of Texas, Appellee

FROM THE DISTRICT COURT OF LLANO COUNTY, 33RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT

NO. 12,139, HONORABLE -----, JUDGE PRESIDING

PER CURIAM

After a review of the clerk's record indicated that appellant was appealing from an order signed by a Court Master, this Court's clerk inquired of appellant regarding the basis for jurisdiction. An order or judgment must be signed by a trial court judge to be appealable. See Tex. R. Civ. P. 306a (time periods run from date judgment, order, or decision is "signed by the trial judge"); Tex. R. App. P. 32.1(c) (docketing statement must include name of trial judge and date judgment or order was signed); 34.5(a)(5) (clerk's record must include copy of trial court's judgment or order). Appellant did not respond to the request for an explanation of this Court's jurisdiction despite a caution that, without such explanation, the appeal would be dismissed.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction.

Before Chief Justice Aboussie, Justices Yeakel and Patterson.
