On January 10, 2008, we notified the parties that the notice of appeal did not appear to have been timely filed. The appellant filed a reply to our correspondence. The trial court signed the judgment on April 30, 2007. The appellant believes he timely filed a request for findings of fact and conclusions of law. Appellant mailed a notice of appeal on December 11, 2007, more than ninety days from the date of judgment and outside the time for which we may grant an extension of time to perfect appeal. See Tex. R. App. P. 26.3. This Court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal.

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

APPEAL DISMISSED.
