MEMORANDUM OPINION Before Chief Justice Contreras and Justices Longoria and Hinojosa Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Contreras

Appellant Rosendo Torres III appealed a judgment entered in trial court cause

number 2018-CCV-61523-5 in the County Court at Law No. 5 of Nueces County, Texas.

On October 15, 2018, the Clerk of this Court notified appellant that the notice of appeal

failed to comply with Texas Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.5(a),(d),(e) and Rule

25.1(d),(e). See TEX. R. APP. P. 9.5(a),(d),(e); id. R. 25.1(d),(e). The Clerk directed appellant to file an amended notice of appeal with the district clerk’s office within thirty

days from the date of that notice. On November 19, 2018, the Clerk notified appellant

that these defects had not been corrected and warned appellant that the appeal would be

dismissed if the defects were not cured within ten days. To date, the defects have not

been corrected. See id. R. 37.3; id. R. 42.3(b),(c).

The Court, having considered the documents on file and appellant’s failure to

correct the defects, is of the opinion that the appeal should be dismissed. See id. R.

37.3; id. R. 42.3(b),(c). Accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED for want of prosecution.
