MEMORANDUM OPINION


Before Justices Yañez, Rodriguez, and Castillo

Opinion Per Curiam


         Appellants, JESUS A. BAZAN, ET AL., attempted to perfect an appeal from an order entered by the 319th District Court of Nueces County, Texas, in cause number 03-7665-G. The order in this cause was signed on October 28, 2003. An untimely motion for new trial was filed on December 12, 2003. Pursuant to Tex. R. App. P. 26.1, appellant’s notice of appeal was due on December 1, 2003, but was not filed until February 10, 2004.

         Notice of this defect was given 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 receipt of this Court’s letter, the appeal would be dismissed. An untimely motion to extend time to file notice of appeal was received on February 13, 2004. Appellants’ response to this Court’s notice was received on March 23, 2004.

         The Court, having examined and fully considered the documents on file, appellants’ failure to timely perfect their appeal, appellants’ untimely motion to extend time to file notice of appeal, and appellants’ response to this Court’s notice, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. Appellants’ untimely motion to extend time to file notice of appeal and the appeal are hereby DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION.

                                                               PER CURIAM
