STEVEN SIMONS, Appellant
V.
BRAEBURN TERRACE OWNERS ASSOCIATION, INC. and HARRIS COUNTY TAX ASSESSOR-COLLECTOR, INC., Appellees
On Appeal from the 151st District Court
Harris County, Texas
Trial Court Cause No. 02-55496
M E M O R A N D U M O P I N I O N
This is an attempted appeal from an order of dismissal with prejudice signed September 26, 2003. No motion for new trial was filed. Appellant=s notice of appeal was not filed until December 30, 2003.
The notice of appeal must be filed within thirty days after the judgment is signed when appellant has not filed a timely motion for new trial, motion to modify the judgment, motion to reinstate, or request for findings of fact and conclusions of law. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.1. Appellant=s notice of appeal was not filed timely. A motion for extension of time is necessarily implied when an appellant, acting in good faith, files a notice of appeal beyond the time allowed by rule 26.1, but within the fifteen-day grace period provided by rule 26.3 for filing a motion for extension of time. Verburgt v. Dorner, 959 S.W.2d 615, 617-18 (1997) (construing the predecessor to rule 26). Appellant=s notice of appeal was not filed within the fifteen-day period provided by rule 26.3
On February 9, 2004, notification was transmitted to all parties of the Court=s intent to dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(a). Appellant filed no response.
Accordingly, the appeal is ordered dismissed.
