COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI - EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________

IN THE MATTER OF JESSE (JESUS) SOLIZ AND CHARLOTTE P. SOLIZ ____________________________________________________________

On appeal from the 94th District Court of Nueces County, Texas. ____________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Justices Rodriguez, Garza, and Longoria Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, Jesse (Jesus) Soliz, proceeding pro se, attempted to perfect an appeal

from an order entered by the 94th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause

number 2013-FAM-2812-C. Upon review of the documents before the Court, it appeared

that the order from which this appeal was taken was not a final appealable order. The

Clerk of this Court notified appellant of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct

the defect, if it could be done. See TEX. R. APP. P. 37.1, 42.3. Appellant was advised

that, if the defect was not corrected within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Appellant failed to respond to the

Court’s notice.

In the instant case, appellant seeks to appeal a final decree of divorce but has not

furnished us with a copy of the judgment subject to appeal. The clerk of the trial court

advises us that the trial court has not rendered a final judgment in this cause.

Accordingly, the Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant's failure to

correct the defect in this matter, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for

want of jurisdiction. See id. R. 42.3(a),(c). Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR

WANT OF JURISDICTION.

PER CURIAM

Delivered and filed the 17th day of September, 2015.
