Before Stevens, C.J., van Cleef and Rambin, JJ.

Memorandum Opinion by Justice van Cleef

MEMORANDUM OPINION

TAP Realty, LLC, and 62 Main Street, LLC, filed a notice of appeal1 that “stat[ed] for the record that there are no final appealable orders in this case.” Appellants argue in their brief that this Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal as a separate point of error. Appellees also argue in their responsive brief that this Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal, albeit for different reasons.

On November 20, 2024, we notified Appellants of a jurisdictional defect and provided them with an opportunity to show this Court how it had jurisdiction over this appeal. See TEX. R. APP. P. 42.3(a), (c). Our November 20 letter further warned Appellants that, absent an adequate response on or before December 2, 2024, we would dismiss the appeal. Appellants have not provided this Court with an adequate response. Instead, they filed a motion for extension of time, asking for an additional ten days to respond. However, they still argue in their motion for extension of time that this Court lacks jurisdiction over the appeal. Appellees filed a motion in opposition to Appellants’ request for additional time, asking us to dismiss the appeal. Although this Court has waited long past the time for a requested extension, we still have not received any response from Appellants showing us how we have jurisdiction over this appeal. Accordingly, this appeal is ripe for dismissal.

1 Originally appealed to the Second Court of Appeals, this case was transferred to this Court by the Texas Supreme Court pursuant to its docket equalization efforts. See TEX. GOV’T CODE ANN. § 73.001 (Supp.).

Pursuant to Rules 42.3, subsections (a) and (c), of the Texas Rules of Appellate Procedure, we dismiss this appeal.
