COURT OF APPEALS

THIRTEENTH DISTRICT OF TEXAS

CORPUS CHRISTI – EDINBURG ____________________________________________________________

IN THE MATTER OF THE MARRIAGE OF MICHAEL WEIKMAN AND PREMLATA JOWATA WEIKMAN ____________________________________________________________

ON APPEAL FROM THE 347TH DISTRICT COURT OF NUECES COUNTY, TEXAS ____________________________________________________________

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Justices Silva, Cron, and Fonseca Memorandum Opinion by Justice Silva

Appellant Michael Lee Weikman attempted to appeal a final decree of divorce

signed on September 25, 2025 in trial court cause number 2023-FAM-3053-H. Upon

review of the documents before this Court, it appears there is no final decree of divorce

nor other final, appealable order. On October 9, 2025, the Clerk of the 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 or

otherwise cure this defect.

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). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed for want of

jurisdiction. See id.

CLARISSA SILVA Justice
