MEMORANDUM OPINION

Before Chief Justice Valdez and Justices Yañez and Rodriguez

Memorandum Opinion Per Curiam

Appellant, Sir Maurice Johnson, attempted to perfect an appeal from a judgment entered by the 343rd District Court of Bee County, Texas, in cause number B-04-1394-CV-C. The clerk's record in the above cause was received by this Court on October 1, 2007. The supplemental clerk's record was received on October 4, 2007. Upon inspection of the record, it appears that there is not a final, appealable judgment. On October 5, 2007, the Court gave appellant notice of this defect so that steps could be taken to correct the defect, if it could be done. The Court notified appellant that if this defect were not cured within ten days from the date of receipt of this notice, the appeal would be dismissed for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a)(c).

Appellant has failed to respond or otherwise correct the defect, and accordingly, the appeal is DISMISSED FOR WANT OF JURISDICTION. See id.
